Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - New Egypt, NJ.

Methadone is a drug used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. Someone who wants to quit using prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near New Egypt where they take it daily to stop withdrawal symptoms, stave off cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone maintenance stay on the drug for many years, due to the fact that coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so painful and last such a long time. Additionally, considering methadone can remain in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even start feeling the effects of 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 severe flu which can include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a professional detoxification facility which allow methadone clients. Some centers offer a medication assisted detox while others help the person withdrawal off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
