Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Succasunna, NJ.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the treatment of opiate dependency and addiction. An Individual who wants to quit using heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone program in or near Succasunna where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal symptoms, stave off cravings and in essence substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone maintenance stay on the drug for many years, due to the fact that withdrawing off it causes withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like 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 considering methadone can stay in the body for so long, users may not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and are likened to a severe flu and may include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, acute insomnia, etc.

Some programs provide a medication assisted detoxification while others help the client detox from the drug without the use of controlled medications.
