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

Methadone is a prescription drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same nerve cell receptors are triggered when someone takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in facilities to treat opiate dependent people so that they don't feel they have to get 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, clinics which treat methadone clients only are licensed to administer methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This method of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Clinics which treat methadone clients only are not normally geared to provide a broad spectrum of extensive rehabilitation services other than daily dosing, although some may offer 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 that is abused and misused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking additional rehabilitation services in Endicott is highly recommended, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are effective in long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
