Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Millfield, OH.

Methadone is a regulated drug which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same neurotransmitter receptors in the brain are triggered when a person uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to treat opiate dependent people so that they don't feel they need to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the symptoms of opiate withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, clinics which treat methadone clients only are licensed to prescribe methadone to these individuals daily. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance.

Clinics which treat methadone clients only are not normally designed to offer a broad spectrum of extensive treatment services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics might provide individual and group therapy and counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking additional rehabilitation services in Millfield is highly recommended, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
