Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Dublin, MS.

Methadone is a prescription drug which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors are activated when a person uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in facilities to treat opiate dependent people so that they don't feel the need to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't experience intense cravings, and won't feel the effects of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, programs which treat methadone clients only are licensed to dispense methadone to these individuals daily. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance therapy.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not normally designed to provide a broad spectrum of extensive recovery services other than daily dosing, although some clinics might deliver individual and group counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. For this reason, it is also a drug which is abused and misused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking additional recovery services in Dublin is highly recommended, including counseling, therapy and cognitive behavioral therapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
