Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Jonesville, VT.

Methadone is a regulated drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors in the brain are triggered when someone takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and 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 crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the symptoms of opiate withdrawal. So rather than quitting cold turkey, clinics which treat methadone clients only are licensed to administer methadone to these clients daily. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not normally set up to offer a broad array of comprehensive treatment services other than daily dosing, although some clinics may provide individual and group therapy and counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist. Consequently, it is also a drug that is abused and misused by opiate addicts. Seeking further treatment services in Jonesville is highly recommended, including therapy, counseling and cognitive behavioral therapies that are effective in long term recovery and preventing relapses.
