Facts

  • The physical component of drug addiction is one reason individuals find it difficult to achieve and maintain abstinence without drug rehab treatment.
  • Methadone treatment can last for a significantly long period of time because individuals become dependent very quickly, in some instances for many years.
  • Rapid opiate detoxification (ROD) is an emerging treatment option for opiate withdrawal that is reportedly faster and causes less physical discomfort than traditional forms of opiate detoxification.
  • Some Ecstasy users experience forceful clenching of the teeth as a result of using the drug, and individuals at clubs have been known to chew on pacifiers to relieve some of the tension.

Brooklyn Park - Methadone Detoxification

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 methadone. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, nausea, sweating, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, irritability, sneezing, fever, vomiting, anxiety, fuzzy-headedness, paranoia, hallucinations and clinical depression. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms will last much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone and how long the person has been using methadone, 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.
