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

Methadone is a prescription drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same neurotransmitter receptors in the brain are triggered when a person ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in programs to treat opiate dependent clients so that they don't feel they have to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the symptoms of withdrawal. So rather than quitting cold turkey, clinics which treat methadone clients only are licensed to administer methadone to these individuals on a daily basis. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance therapy.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not typically geared to provide a broad array of extensive treatment services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics might offer group and individual therapy and 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 opioid dependent individuals. Seeking additional recovery services in Newton Junction is highly recommended, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are successful at long term recovery and relapse prevention.
