Methadone Withdrawals
Additional Information
Though used as a substitution therapy to treat opiate addiction, Methadone itself can be addicting and require a detox. It is also used in the treatment of pain management. The powerful narcotic also has a high potential for misuse and abuse. Many patients who seek opiate detox are prescribed Methadone which is long-lasting and helps to block withdrawal symptoms from other opiates. Taking Methadone can lead to the need for a second detox. The Waismann Method’s renowned opiate detox program does not use opiate substitutes to treat addiction and can get you drug-free in a matter of days. A physical addiction to Methadone is present if withdrawal symptoms set in once use is stopped or decreased.
Methadone Withdrawal Symptoms
Withdrawal symptoms with Methadone are considered less severe than with morphine or heroin but last longer, sometimes 2 weeks to 6 months. Symptoms can include lightheadedness, sneezing, vomiting, delusions, paranoia, elevated blood pressure, suicidal ideation, nausea, diarrhea, fever, chills, aches and pain, tremors, depression, prolonged insomnia, delirium, hallucinations, agitation and anxiety. Withdrawal symptoms associated with Methadone use can be brutal if not managed properly with medically-assisted detox. Withdrawal symptoms can be more serious in long-term users or those who misuse it or abuse it. People who take Methadone for an extended period should gradually decrease their use to minimize withdrawal symptoms. This should be done with help from a medical professional or addiction specialist.
