Methadone is a regulated drug used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. Someone who wants to quit abusing prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone program in or near Toquerville where they take it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone maintenance treatment stay on it for many years, considering coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so harsh and last such a long time. And since methadone can stay in the body for so long, users may not even begin feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two when they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and are likened to a really bad flu and can include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.
Methadone detoxification can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility which accepts patients withdrawing from the drug. Some facilities provide a medication assisted detoxification while others help the person detox from the drug without the use of controlled medications.
