Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Hickory Flat, MS.

Methadone is a prescription medication which like morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neurotransmitter receptors are activated when a person ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to help opiate addicted individuals so that they don't feel they have to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the symptoms of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, programs that treat methadone clients only are authorized to administer methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This method of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not normally set up to offer a broad array of comprehensive recovery services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics might provide group and individual 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. Consequently, it is also a drug which is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking supplemental rehabilitation services in Hickory Flat is highly recommended, including therapy, counseling and cognitive behavioral therapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
