Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - New Chapel Hill, TX.

Methadone is a drug used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. Someone who wants to stop using heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near New Chapel Hill where they take it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal symptoms, stave off cravings and essentially substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone treatment stay on it for decades, considering coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so painful and last for weeks. Additionally, considering methadone can stay in the body for so long, users may not even begin experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which can include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made more comfortable and manageable in a professional detoxification facility which accepts patients withdrawing from the drug. Some facilities offer a medically managed detox while others help the client detox from the drug without the use of controlled medications.
