Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Rose Hill, NC.

Methadone is a regulated drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same neural receptors in the brain are activated when a person uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to treat opiate addicted people so that they don't feel they have to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't experience intense cravings, and won't undergo the effects of opiate withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are licensed to administer methadone to these clients daily. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not typically geared to provide a broad array of comprehensive recovery services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics may offer individual and group counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking supplemental recovery services in Rose Hill is suggested, such as counseling, therapy and psychotherapies which are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
