Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Cades, SC.

Methadone is a drug used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to quit abusing heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Cades where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and basically replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone treatment remain on the drug for many years, considering 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's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so harsh and last so long. And because methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users may not even start feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and feels similar to a severe flu and may include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made more comfortable and manageable in a detox facility that allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some facilities offer a medically managed detox while others help the client withdrawal off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
