Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Trinity, TX.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the treatment of opiate addiction. Someone who wants to stop taking prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Trinity where they take it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal symptoms, stave off cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone treatment remain on it for decades, because withdrawing off it can produce withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin and morphine. However, it remains in the body longer which is why detoxing from it can be so uncomfortable and last such a long time. Additionally, considering methadone can stay in the body for so long, users may not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which may include chills, fever, 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 patients withdrawing from the drug. Some programs provide a medically managed detoxification while others help the individual detox from the drug cold turkey without any medications.
