Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Delbarton, WV.

Methadone is a prescription medication which similar to morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors are triggered when someone ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in facilities to treat opiate addicted clients so that they don't feel they have to get involved in drug seeking behavior, won't experience intense cravings, and won't feel 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 daily. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance.

Clinics which treat methadone clients only are not typically set up to provide a wide range of extensive treatment services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics may offer group and individual therapy and counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused and misused by opiate addicts. Seeking further treatment services in Delbarton is suggested, such as counseling, therapy and psychotherapies which are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
