Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Sparks, NV.

Methadone is a medication used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction and dependency. An Individual who wants to stop abusing prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Sparks where they take it daily to avoid withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and in essence substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone treatment remain on the drug for decades, because coming off it causes withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like 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. And considering methadone can stay in the body for so long, users usually will not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which can include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility that allow methadone clients. Some facilities offer a medically managed detoxification while others help the person detox from the drug without the use of controlled medications.
