Facts

  • Because central nervous system depressants work by slowing the brain's activity, when an individual stops taking the drug this activity can rebound and as part of withdrawal seizures can occur.
  • Most specialized drug rehab programs employ counselors, physicians, nurses, and access to social workers to aid in the rehabilitation process.
  • Studies indicate that most individuals who seek treatment and remain in a drug rehab program stop using drugs, decrease their criminal activity, and improve their occupational, social, and psychological functioning.
  • Research has proven that long-term drug use results in changes in the brain that can affect the person long after they have stopped using drugs.

Ireland, WV. - Methadone Detoxification

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