Facts

  • Research indicates that a brain process known as long-term potentiating, or LTP, has been shown to be blocked in the brains of rats who were given as little as a single dose of morphine, which continued to be blocked 24 hours later in some instances.
  • Methadone used in opiate maintenance therapy was originally developed to help obliterate withdrawal symptoms and support a healthy lifestyle. However, the effects of withdrawal far exceed that of heroin which causes the individual to become addicted to it instead.
  • Research indicates that drug rehab for drug addicted offenders during and after incarceration can have a significant impact on future drug use, criminal behavior, and social functioning.
  • Methamphetamine use causes increased wakefulness and physical activity, rapid heart rate, irregular heartbeat, and increased blood pressure and body temperature.

Methadone Detoxification - Union Hill, Illinois

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