Facts

  • When "Methadone Treatment" was first put into use to treat opiate addiction, it was meant to be a 20-day process, although methadone treatment facilities are currently run based on their profitability which keeps individuals on methadone indefinitely.
  • Slang terms for methamphetamine include speed, meth, chalk, ice, crystal and glass.
  • The sale of prescription narcotics such as Lortab in the U.S. is a $10 billion dollar per year market.
  • There is a massive gap between those who need drug rehab and those who actually receive it, and efforts to reduce this gap must include increasing access to treatment, achieving insurance parity, reducing stigma, and raising awareness regarding the value of drug rehab.

Methadone Detoxification - Connelly, NY.

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and difficult 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, sweating, nausea, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, sneezing, irritability, fever, vomiting, fuzzy-headedness, paranoia, 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 typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
