Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Sabael, NY.

Methadone is a medication utilized for the treatment of opiate dependency and addiction. A person who wants to stop abusing heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Sabael where they take it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and in essence substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone maintenance treatment remain on the drug for many years, because withdrawing off it can produce withdrawal symptoms much worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why detoxing from it can be so painful and last such a long time. And considering methadone can remain in the body for so long, users usually will not even begin experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and are likened to a really bad flu and may include chills, fever, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility which accepts patients withdrawing from the drug. Some facilities offer a medically managed detox while others help the person get off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
