Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Hye, TX.

Methadone is a prescription medication used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction and dependency. An Individual who wants to quit abusing prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Hye where they take it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal, stave off cravings and in essence replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone maintenance treatment remain on the drug for many years, because coming off it can produce withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin and morphine. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so harsh and last for weeks. Additionally, since methadone can remain in the body for so long, users may not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which can include chills, fever, 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 that accepts methadone clients. Some programs offer a medically managed detox while others help the person get off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
