Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Morse, TX.

Methadone is a 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 Morse where they take it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone treatment remain on the drug for decades, because coming off it causes withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why detoxing from it can be so harsh and last so long. And 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.
