Facts

  • The rate of drug overdose deaths in the U.S. has increased five-fold since 1990, primarily due to the non-medical use of prescription drugs.
  • Most heroin users that have also used methadone have claimed that the detox and withdrawal from heroin was far less difficult and painful than that of methadone.
  • Vicodin overdose can be fatal or result in permanent brain damage if treatment is delayed and a large amount of the drug has been taken, so it is important that individuals get help immediately if it is suspected that they have overdosed.
  • Studies show that becoming divorced leads to increased drinking among those that consume alcohol.

Methadone Detoxification - Mcintosh, New Mexico

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, 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 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 typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
