Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - McBain, MI.

Methadone is a regulated drug which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same nerve cell receptors are triggered when someone takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to help opiate addicted clients so that they don't feel they have to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the effects of withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are authorized to administer methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This type of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not typically set up to offer a broad array of extensive rehabilitation services other than daily dosing, although some might offer group and individual counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist. Consequently, it is also a drug that is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking further rehabilitation services in McBain is suggested, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies which are effective in long term recovery and relapse prevention.
