Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Hager City, WI.

Methadone is a prescription drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors in the brain are activated when someone uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to help opiate addicted clients so that they don't feel they have to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't experience intense cravings, and won't undergo the symptoms of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, clinics which treat methadone clients only are authorized to dispense methadone to these clients daily. This type of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not normally set up to offer a wide range of comprehensive rehabilitation services other than daily dosing, although some might offer group and individual 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. For this reason, it is also a drug which is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking supplemental rehabilitation services in Hager City is suggested, including counseling, therapy and cognitive behavioral therapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
