Facts

  • Morphine is a drug which is cultivated from the opium poppy, and is actually the principal constituent of opium and is used to produce other opiate drugs as well.
  • Prescription central nervous system depressants slow down brain function, and if combined with other medications that cause drowsiness or with alcohol, heart rate and respiration can slow down dangerously.
  • Methadone is a drug with an extremely high risk of physical dependence, and if the individual does not take the drug each day, they will experience very painful withdrawals.
  • Studies indicate that adolescent and young adult drinkers are particularly likely to drink alcohol heavily with the intention of getting drunk-often every time they drink.

Huntington Station, NY. - Methadone Detoxification

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and challenging 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, nausea, sweating, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, sneezing, irritability, chills, vomiting, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, hallucinations and clinical depression. Additionally, these unpleasant 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 typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
