Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Belvidere, NC.

Methadone is a prescription medication which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors are triggered when someone takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to treat opiate addicted 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 undergo the symptoms of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, clinics that treat methadone clients only are authorized to dispense methadone to these individuals daily. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not usually geared to provide a broad array of extensive rehabilitation services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics might provide group and individual counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist. For this reason, it is also a drug which is abused and misused by opiate addicts. Seeking supplemental treatment services in Belvidere is highly recommended, including counseling, therapy and psychotherapies that are successful at long term recovery and relapse prevention.
