Facts
- PCP is sometimes sold as a substitute for other drugs, raising the risk of toxicity and overdose in unsuspecting users.
- Taken orally once a day, methadone suppresses narcotic withdrawal for between 24 and 36 hours.
- New heroin users are often under the false impression that snorting or smoking heroin will not lead to addiction.
- Individuals who overcome withdrawal but do not seek drug treatment are likely to relapse back into drug use, making the recurrence of withdrawal syndrome high.

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and taxing experience. Withdrawal 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, extreme cravings, tremors, sneezing, irritability, fever, chills, vomiting, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms tend to continue 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 share that it is important to gradually decrease your dose of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
