Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Roderfield, WV.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the treatment of opiate addiction. Someone who wants to stop taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Roderfield where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and essentially substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone maintenance remain on it for many years, because coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin and morphine. However, it's effects last much longer which is why detoxing 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 if they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and are likened to a really bad flu which may include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a professional detoxification facility that allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some facilities offer a medication assisted detox while others help the client get off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
