Methadone maintenance is a form of treatment for individuals in Chandler who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This form of treatment has been around for decades now, and the overall idea is that clients are no longer engaged in the drug abusing behavior that was brought on by their addiction because the methadone they are taking satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Like heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist which stimulates the same neurons in the brain as heroin. This is what makes methadone so successful as a replacement for heroin and prescription pain killers.
Clients involved in methadone maintenance have to take it every day to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This may be logistically and financially challenging, but some find it a better option than a heroin addiction. However, someone beginning methadone maintenance therapy ought to be aware of the fact that methadone detoxification is known to be far more difficult than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once taking a moderate dosage of methadone, there are many detoxification facilities that won't even take methadone maintenance clients seeing that detox can be very challenging and relapse rates are very high.
