Methadone Clinic in Frisco, TX

You can schedule an intake assessment at our Frisco clinic the same day or the next day. Our admissions team is available for intake seven days a week. You can start on Methadone without waiting for withdrawal symptoms to show up.

Dosing opens at 6:00 AM Monday through Friday and runs through 2:00 PM, with the last dose at 1:30 PM. Saturday dosing runs 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM, with the last dose at 8:30 AM. The early opening means you can come in at The Star and still make an early shift or a drive south on the Dallas North Tollway. Admissions stay open 24/7 for intake and transfer questions.

Methadone is a long-acting medication that occupies the same receptors that opioids act on — enough to stop withdrawal and quiet cravings, but without the high you get from short-acting opioids. Once you reach a stable dose, one morning dose holds you through the day.

There is no set time limit. Some patients are prescribed Methadone for a year or two, others longer. The right length is the one that keeps you stable and in recovery. You and our medical team review your plan together over time.

You get take-home doses over time. You start with daily dosing at The Star so our medical team can settle your dose and see you often. As you show stability and consistent attendance, take-home doses become available step by step, following federal and Texas guidelines. That means fewer trips for patients driving in from Plano, McKinney, or Prosper.

Methadone is a full agonist given at the clinic each day and can suit higher opioid tolerance or patients who have not responded to buprenorphine. Suboxone® is a partial agonist with a ceiling effect and take-home flexibility. Our medical team helps you choose at intake.

Once you reach your regular dose, most patients work and drive normally. At the right dose, Methadone does not produce a high. Our medical team reviews your situation and lets you know if anything needs extra care early in treatment.

Counseling is part of every patient’s treatment plan at our Frisco Methadone clinic, included at no extra cost. Methadone eases withdrawal and cravings, but counseling addresses the patterns, triggers, and stress behind opioid use. You meet with a counselor on a regular schedule, and you can add our virtual evening IOP when you want more support.

In the first weeks of treatment, you may notice sweating, constipation, dry mouth, or drowsiness, and these symptoms usually ease over time. Tell our medical team about anything new, and they may check your heart rhythm as a routine safety step.

Our clinic sits at The Star, just off the Dallas North Tollway, so most patients in Plano, McKinney, Allen, and Prosper reach us in well under half an hour. On-site parking at The Star means a quick daily dose takes only a few minutes from car to clinic and back, and most ongoing visits run about 10 to 15 minutes once your dose is steady. Early 6:00 AM dosing means you can come in before work and still make your morning in Collin County.

Fentanyl is now involved in the majority of opioid overdose deaths in Texas. Methadone is one of the most established treatments for opioid use disorder, including fentanyl use, and at our Frisco clinic it comes with counseling and on-site psychiatry in one place.

Yes, we coordinate transfers with no gap in dosing. Bring documentation of your current dose level and last dose date, and our care team handles the handoff. We accept transfers from any state-licensed Opioid Treatment Program in the DFW area.
