Facts

  • Instances of alcohol-related admissions to acute care hospitals for older Americans are similar to those for heart attacks.
  • When an individual is experiencing the withdrawal symptoms due to a lack of heroin or other opiates, this is commonly referred to as going "cold turkey".
  • One option that is sometimes used to avoid opiate withdrawal is to replace the individual's drug of choice with methadone, a long-acting, cross-tolerant opiate that does not normally produce a "high."
  • On rare occasions, sudden death can occur on the first use of cocaine or unexpectedly thereafter. However, there is no way to determine who is prone to sudden death.

Methadone Detoxification - Talmo, GA.

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 the drug. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, nausea, sweating, extreme cravings, tremors, irritability, sneezing, chills, vomiting, anxiety, fuzzy-headedness, paranoia, clinical depression and hallucinations. 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 typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of completely stopping all at once.
