Methadone is a medication utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. An Individual who wants to quit abusing heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Wausau where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone maintenance treatment remain on it for many years, because withdrawing off it causes withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so harsh and last so long. And because methadone can remain in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even start feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and are likened to a really bad flu and may include chills, fever, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.
Methadone detoxification can be made much more comfortable in a detox facility which accepts patients withdrawing from the drug. Some programs provide a medically managed detoxification while others help the person get off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
