Facts

  • More and more opiate users are turning to sniffing and smoking opiates instead of injection them, because of increased purity and the misconception that these forms of administration are safer.
  • The effects of methadone subside long before the drug is out of the person's system; a factor which can make excessive use of the drug extremely risky.
  • The only opiates still in use for pain management by medical professionals are morphine and codeine, as well as some synthetic opiates.
  • Many individuals consume alcohol initially to use alcohol as a stimulant, although alcohol is actually a depressant.

Reedville, Virginia - 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 methadone. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, nausea, sweating, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, irritability, sneezing, chills, vomiting, anxiety, fuzzy-headedness, paranoia, 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 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 share that it is important to gradually decrease your dose of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
