Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Lyndeborough, NH.

Methadone is a prescription medication which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors are triggered when a person uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in facilities to treat opiate addicted individuals so that they don't feel the need to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't experience intense cravings, and won't feel the effects of withdrawal. So rather than quitting cold turkey, clinics that treat methadone clients only are licensed to prescribe methadone to these clients daily. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance therapy.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not commonly geared to provide a broad array of extensive treatment services other than daily dosing, although some clinics might provide individual and group therapy and counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist. For this reason, it is also a drug which is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking further treatment services in Lyndeborough is highly recommended, including counseling, therapy and cognitive behavioral therapies that are effective in long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
