Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Hartland Four Corners, VT.

Methadone is a regulated drug which like morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same neurotransmitter receptors are triggered when a person uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to treat opiate dependent people so that they don't feel they need to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the symptoms of withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, facilities which treat methadone clients only are authorized to prescribe methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This type of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not commonly geared to provide a broad spectrum of comprehensive recovery services other than daily dosing, although some clinics might deliver group and individual counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking additional rehabilitation services in Hartland Four Corners is highly recommended, including therapy, counseling and cognitive behavioral therapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
