Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Everson, WA.

Methadone is a drug utilized for the treatment of opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to quit taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Everson where they ingest it daily to avoid withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and in essence replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone maintenance stay on the drug for many years, considering coming off it causes withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to 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. And since methadone can remain in the body for so long, users usually will not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which may include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a detox facility which accepts methadone clients. Some centers provide a medication assisted detox while others help the person withdrawal off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
