Methadone maintenance is a form of treatment for individuals in Buffalo who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription opioid medications. This method of treatment has been around for a very long time, and the general notion is that clients are no longer involved in the drug using behavior that was brought on by their addiction since the methadone that they are being administered satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and activates the same neurons in the brain as heroin. This is what makes methadone so powerful as a replacement for heroin and prescription pain killers.
People enrolled in methadone maintenance must dose daily to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This can be financially and logistically challenging, but some people find it a better choice than a heroin addiction. Nevertheless, people starting on methadone maintenance therapy should know that methadone detoxification is known to be far more difficult than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once on a high dosage of methadone, there are some detoxification programs that will not take methadone maintenance clients considering detox can be so difficult and relapse rates are considerably high.
