Drug Addiction Facts

  • Most inpatient rehabilitation facilities follow the 12-step model of recovery. The patient is expected to attend at least 2 groups with their fellow patients daily.
  • Like heroin and other opiates, if an user has developed a physical dependence to methadone and they stop taking it or decrease their dose they begin to experience methadone withdrawal. This happens after very short term use.
  • When an user stops taking codeine after long-term use withdrawal symptoms including cravings, sweating, difficulty sleeping, nausea, diarrhea, muscle spasms and irritability often occur.
