Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Newburg, WI.

Methadone is a medication utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to stop taking prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Newburg where they ingest it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal, stave off cravings and in essence replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone treatment remain on it for many years, considering withdrawing off it causes withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why detoxing from it can be so painful and last such a long time. And because methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users may not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which may include chills, fever, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made much more comfortable in a detox facility which allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some programs offer a medically managed detoxification while others help the client get off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
