Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Latty, OH.

Methadone is a prescription medication which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors in the brain are triggered when someone takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to help opiate addicted people so that they don't feel the need to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the symptoms of opiate withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, programs that treat methadone clients only are authorized to administer methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This method of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not typically set up to offer a broad spectrum of comprehensive rehabilitation services other than daily dosing, although some might deliver group and individual counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist. Consequently, it is also a drug which is abused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking further rehabilitation services in Latty is suggested, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
