Facts

  • Methadone used in opiate maintenance therapy was originally developed to help obliterate withdrawal symptoms and support a healthy lifestyle. However, the effects of withdrawal far exceed that of heroin which causes the individual to become addicted to it instead.
  • Lortab dependent individuals constantly have to figure out how to get and take more of the drug every day, or they will quickly begin going through Lortab withdrawal.
  • When Dilaudid is injected individuals feel an initial surge of pleasure, which then proceeds into a state of gratification into which hunger, pain, and sexual urges do not intrude.
  • Over-the-counter analgesics such as Advil, Ibuprofen, Aspirin, Tylenol and some prescription medications can cause headaches for long periods of time as part of typical withdrawal syndrome after cessation of use.

Collinsville - 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 the drug. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, nausea, sweating, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, irritability, sneezing, chills, vomiting, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, hallucinations and clinical depression. 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 share that it is important to gradually decrease your dose of the drug over a period of time instead of completely stopping all at once.
