Methadone maintenance is a form of treatment for clients in Springdale who are addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This method of treatment has been in existence for a very long time, and the overall idea is that clients are no longer involved in the drug using activities that was brought on by their addiction since the methadone that they are being administered satiates cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Like heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist which stimulates 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 other prescription opioids.
Clients involved in methadone maintenance therapy must take it daily to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This can be financially and logistically challenging, but some find it a better option than a heroin addiction. However, those starting on methadone maintenance need to know that methadone detox is considered far more difficult than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once on a high dosage of methadone, there are some detoxification facilities that won't even take methadone maintenance clients because detox can be so challenging and rates of relapse are very high.
