Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Liberty Corner, NJ.

Methadone is a regulated drug used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to quit abusing prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Liberty Corner where they ingest it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone maintenance stay on the drug for many years, considering coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin and morphine. However, it's effects last much longer which is why detoxing from it can be so harsh and last for weeks. And since methadone can remain in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu and can include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility that accepts methadone clients. Some centers provide a medication assisted detox while others help the client withdrawal off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
