Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Beetown, WI.

Methadone is a regulated drug which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same neurotransmitter receptors are triggered when someone ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in programs to treat opiate dependent people so that they don't feel the need to become involved in drug seeking behavior, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the effects of withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are authorized to administer methadone to these individuals daily. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not usually designed to provide a broad array of extensive rehabilitation services other than daily dosing, although some may deliver individual and group therapy and counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. Consequently, it is also a drug which is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking further treatment services in Beetown is highly recommended, including therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
