Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Ladonia, TX.

Methadone is a drug utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to stop abusing heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Ladonia where they ingest it daily to avoid withdrawal, avoid cravings and in essence replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone treatment remain on the drug for decades, due to the fact that coming 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 for weeks. Additionally, because methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even begin feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and are likened to a severe flu which may include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility that allow methadone clients. Some centers provide a medically managed detoxification while others help the client detox from the drug without the use of controlled medications.
