Methadone maintenance is a type of treatment for individuals in Carmichael who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription opioid medications. This method of treatment has been in existence for a very long time, and the general idea is that individuals are no longer involved in the drug abusing behavior that was driven by their addiction due to the methadone they are taking satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Like heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist which stimulates the same receptors in the brain as heroin. This is what makes methadone so effective as a replacement for heroin and prescription pain killers.
People enrolled in methadone maintenance therapy have to dose every day to avoid withdrawal symptoms from the methadone itself. This might be logistically and financially difficult, but some people feel it is a better option than a heroin addiction. Nevertheless, someone starting on methadone maintenance should be aware of the fact that methadone detox is known to be far more challenging than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once taking a moderate dosage of methadone, there are some detoxification facilities that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients since detoxification can be very difficult and relapse rates are considerably high.
