Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Princeton, WI.

Methadone is a regulated drug which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neurotransmitter receptors are triggered when someone ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in facilities to help opiate dependent clients so that they don't feel the need to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't experience intense cravings, and won't feel the effects of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, programs that treat methadone clients only are authorized to dispense methadone to these individuals daily. This method of treatment is known as methadone maintenance therapy.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not typically set up to offer a wide range of extensive treatment services other than daily dosing, although some clinics might provide individual and group counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist. Consequently, it is also a drug that is abused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking additional rehabilitation services in Princeton is highly recommended, including counseling, therapy and cognitive behavioral therapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
