Methadone maintenance is a form of treatment for people in Lawrenceburg who are dependent on heroin or prescription opioid medications. This form of treatment has been around for a very long time, and the general idea is that people are no longer involved in the drug using activities that was brought on by their addiction since the methadone that they are being administered satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and activates the same receptors in the brain as heroin and other powerful pain killers. This is what makes methadone so powerful as a replacement for heroin and prescription pain killers.
People involved in methadone maintenance must dose every day to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This might be logistically and financially challenging, but some people find it a better alternative to a heroin addiction. However, someone starting on methadone maintenance ought to be aware of the fact that methadone detoxification is considered far more challenging than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once on a high dosage of methadone, there are many detox facilities that won't even take methadone maintenance clients because detox can be very challenging and relapse rates are considerably high.
