Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Sugar Hill, NH.

Methadone is a prescription drug which like morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same nerve cell receptors are activated when someone takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in programs to help opiate addicted people so that they don't feel the need to get involved in drug seeking behavior, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the effects of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, clinics that treat methadone clients only are licensed to prescribe methadone to these clients daily. This method of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not commonly set up to offer a wide range of extensive rehabilitation services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics might provide group and individual therapy and counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. Consequently, it is also a drug which is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking supplemental rehabilitation services in Sugar Hill is highly recommended, such as counseling, therapy and psychotherapies which are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
