Facts

  • The FDA has urged physicians to use great caution when prescribing methadone, because of the potential for respiratory distress and dangerous changes in an individual's heart beat that cannot be felt by the patient.
  • Persistent withdrawal signs have been observed in chronic drug users, even after acute withdrawal symptoms have passed. These symptoms can occur for many months.
  • Psychological addiction on alcohol may occur with regular use of even relatively moderate daily amounts. It may also occur in people who consume alcohol only under certain conditions, such as before and during social occasions.
  • Mental deterioration, also known as dementia, is accelerated by the consumption of alcohol and is the second-leading cause of dementia.

Methadone Detoxification - Natick, MA.

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and taxing experience. Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of the drug. Typical withdrawal symptoms include: stomach cramps, sweating, nausea, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, irritability, sneezing, chills, vomiting, fuzzy-headedness, paranoia, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, these unpleasant methadone withdrawal symptoms will last much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone you have been taking the symptoms can last for several weeks to several months. Professionals in the field of methadone detoxification typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
