Detox Recovery

Methadone is a synthetic opioid with potent analgesic effects. Although commonly associated with the treatment of opioid addiction, analgesia may also be prescribed for various pain syndromes. It may also be an appropriate replacement for morphine, when side effects limit dosage increases. Methadone toxicity is not always apparent in the first few days after initiating therapy and so careful follow up of all patients is mandatory.

Many times Methadone is given as a replacement opioid therapy when someone is coming off of other drugs like heroin.  This is when most people become addicted and Methadone becomes a way of life.  Methadone doesn’t have to rule your daily life anymore, there are new treatments available provided by skilled medical professionals at an inpatient detox facility near you.
