Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Glorieta, NM.

Methadone is a drug utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to stop abusing prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Glorieta where they ingest it daily to avoid withdrawal, stave off cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone treatment remain on it for many years, considering withdrawing off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far worse 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 uncomfortable and last such a long time. Additionally, considering methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even begin experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a severe flu which may 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 allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some facilities offer a medically managed detoxification while others help the individual withdrawal off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
