Facts

  • When an individual stops consuming alcohol, alcohol level in their body can actually continue to increase. No amount of coffee, cold baths, showers, or trying to walk it off will stop this process.
  • Most opiate addicted individuals are no longer capable of holding down a job which often leads to loss of health insurance coverage. Diseases and conditions that develop as a result of opiate addiction are therefore often paid for through public funds because these individuals cannot pay for their own treatment.
  • Fevers associated with drug withdrawal must be closely monitored to make sure that they are not the result of an underlying infection, which should be treated immediately.
  • Women are up to three times more likely than men to be prescribed prescription opioids such as Percocet, and twice as likely to form a Percocet addiction.

Eastham - Methadone Detoxification

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 the drug. Typical withdrawal symptoms include: stomach cramps, sweating, nausea, extreme cravings, tremors, sneezing, irritability, fever, chills, vomiting, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, hallucinations and clinical depression. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms tend to continue 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 stopping all at once.
