Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Rosharon, TX.

Methadone is a medication used in the treatment of opiate addiction and dependency. An Individual who wants to stop abusing prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Rosharon where they ingest it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal, stave off cravings and in essence replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone maintenance remain on the drug for decades, due to the fact that withdrawing off it causes withdrawal symptoms much worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so harsh and last such a long time. Additionally, considering methadone can stay in the body for so long, users usually will not even begin feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and feels similar to a severe flu which may include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made more comfortable and manageable in a professional detoxification facility which accepts methadone clients. Some programs provide a medically managed detoxification while others help the individual withdrawal off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
