Facts
- Taken orally once a day, methadone suppresses narcotic withdrawal for between 24 and 36 hours.
- Withdrawal symptoms can make quitting fentanyl and other opiates almost impossible, especially when one attempts to do so on one's own.
- Unlike other drug of abuse such as cocaine and heroin, methamphetamine is produced using common household chemicals and is a man-made drug.
- Cocaine withdrawal occurs because the body compensates for the heightened euphoria by blocking pleasure centers. This causes depression and stress and other symptoms.
