Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Winter, WI.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. Someone who wants to stop abusing heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Winter where they take it daily to avoid withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and in essence replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone treatment remain on the drug for many years, considering withdrawing off it causes withdrawal symptoms far worse 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 painful and last such a long time. And since methadone can remain in the body for so long, users usually will not even begin feeling the effects of 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 which can include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made more comfortable and manageable in a professional detoxification facility that accepts methadone clients. Some facilities offer a medication assisted detoxification while others help the individual get off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
