Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Marion, WI.

Methadone is a prescription medication which like morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors in the brain are activated when a person ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to help opiate dependent individuals so that they don't feel they have to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't experience intense cravings, and won't undergo the effects of opiate withdrawal. So rather than quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are authorized to dispense methadone to these individuals on a daily basis. This type of treatment is called methadone maintenance.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not typically geared to offer a broad spectrum of comprehensive treatment services other than daily dosing, although some clinics might provide individual and group counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused and misused by opiate addicts. Seeking further rehabilitation services in Marion is suggested, including counseling, therapy and psychotherapies that are successful at long term recovery and preventing relapses.
