Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Chambers, NE.

Methadone is a prescription drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors are triggered when someone uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to treat opiate addicted individuals so that they don't feel the need to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the symptoms of withdrawal. So rather than quitting cold turkey, facilities which treat methadone clients only are authorized to prescribe methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Clinics which treat methadone clients only are not normally designed to provide a broad array of extensive recovery services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics may provide individual and group counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking supplemental recovery services in Chambers is highly recommended, including counseling, therapy and cognitive behavioral therapies that are successful at long term recovery and relapse prevention.
