Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Marysville, OH.

Methadone is a prescription drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors are activated when someone uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to help opiate addicted individuals so that they don't feel they have to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the symptoms of withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are licensed to prescribe methadone to these clients daily. This type of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not typically geared to offer a wide range of extensive rehabilitation services beyond daily dosing, although some may deliver individual and group counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist. Consequently, it is also a drug that is abused and misused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking further rehabilitation services in Marysville is highly recommended, such as counseling, therapy and cognitive behavioral therapies that are successful at long term recovery and preventing relapses.
