Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Broadway, NJ.

Methadone is a drug utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. An Individual who wants to stop using heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Broadway where they ingest it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and basically replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone maintenance treatment remain on the drug for many years, because withdrawing off it can produce withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so uncomfortable and last so long. And because methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users may not even begin experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they quit taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which can include chills, fever, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a professional detoxification facility that allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some programs offer a medically managed detox while others help the individual detox from the drug cold turkey without any medications.
