- Methadone doesn't lessen the severity of drug addiction and dependence, and use of the drug in any type of treatment environment leaves the addict completely dependent on and addicted to methadone instead of other opiates they were formerly addicted to.
- Since PCP is only made illegally an individual who takes the drug recreationally never knows exactly what potency of PCP is actually being taken, making the use of this drug particularly dangerous.

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and taxing 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, irritability, sneezing, chills, vomiting, anxiety, fuzzy-headedness, paranoia, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms will last 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.
