  • Tolerance is defined as the need for larger amounts of alcohol to become intoxicated.
  • Seizures that occur as a result of benzodiazepine withdrawal typically last 30 seconds but can last up to a couple of minutes.
  • One study in a state prison found that prisoners who participated in a drug rehab program and continued to receive treatment in a work-release program after prison were 70 percent less likely than nonparticipants to return to drug use and be re-arrested.

Zephyrhills, Florida - 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, extreme cravings, tremors, irritability, sneezing, chills, vomiting, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, hallucinations and clinical depression. 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 typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
