Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Midland, OH.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the treatment of opiate dependency and addiction. An Individual who wants to stop using prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone program in or near Midland where they ingest it daily to avoid withdrawal symptoms, stave off cravings and in essence replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone treatment remain on it for many years, considering coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why detoxing from it can be so uncomfortable and last so long. And since methadone can remain in the body for such a long time, users may not even begin experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and feels similar to a severe flu and may include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a detox facility which 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.
