Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Maiden Rock, WI.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the treatment of opiate addiction. Someone who wants to quit using prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Maiden Rock where they take it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and basically replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone maintenance treatment stay on it for many years, considering withdrawing off it can produce withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin and morphine. However, it remains in the body longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so uncomfortable and last for weeks. Additionally, since methadone can remain in the body for so long, users may not even begin experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu and can include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made much more comfortable in a detox facility which allow methadone clients. Some programs offer a medication assisted detoxification while others help the client get off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
