Facts

  • Methamphetamine labs in the U.S. depend on supplies of the precursor chemical pseudoephedrine from sources in Canada and sometimes Mexico.
  • Use of methamphetamine often results in mental confusion which can impair one's ability to take medications that have been prescribed for HIV infection or other conditions, worsening the illness and outcome of the illness.
  • Methadone's life threatening side effects have occurred even in patients that were just starting to use methadone for pain control, and have also been observed in patients who have switched to methadone after being treated for pain with other strong narcotic pain relievers.
  • Some crack cocaine users claim that they are unable to duplicate the intensity of the first time they used the drug with subsequent use.

West Liberty - Methadone Detoxification

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and taxing experience. Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of the drug. Typical withdrawal symptoms include: stomach cramps, sweating, nausea, extreme cravings, tremors, sneezing, irritability, chills, vomiting, anxiety, fuzzy-headedness, paranoia, clinical depression and hallucinations. 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.
