Methadone is a regulated drug used in the treatment of opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to stop abusing prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Crawford where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and essentially substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone maintenance treatment remain on the drug for many years, due to the fact that withdrawing off it causes withdrawal symptoms much worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so painful and last for weeks. And because methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users may not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which may include chills, fever, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.
