Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Milano, TX.

Methadone is a medication used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction and dependency. Someone who wants to stop taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Milano where they take it daily to stop withdrawal, stave off cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone maintenance treatment stay on it for many years, because coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why detoxing from it can be so painful and last such a long time. And because methadone can stay in the body for so long, users usually will not even start feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two when they quit taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which may include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, acute insomnia, etc.

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