Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Imnaha, OR.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the treatment of opiate dependency and addiction. Someone who wants to stop taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Imnaha where they take it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal, stave off cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone maintenance treatment remain on the drug for decades, because withdrawing off it causes withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin and morphine. However, it remains in the body longer which is why detoxing from it can be so uncomfortable and last so long. Additionally, considering methadone can remain in the body for such a long time, users may not even begin experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a severe flu which can include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility that allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some centers provide a medication assisted detoxification while others help the individual get off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
