Methadone maintenance is a method of treatment for clients in Fort Collins who are addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This type of treatment has been around for decades now, and the overall notion is that people are no longer wrapped up in the drug using activities that was brought on by their addiction since the methadone they are taking satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and stimulates the same neurons in the brain as heroin and other powerful pain killers. This is what makes methadone so successful as a replacement for heroin and other prescription opioids.
People enrolled in methadone maintenance have to take it every day to avoid withdrawal symptoms from the methadone itself. This might be logistically and financially difficult, but some find it a better alternative to a heroin addiction. However, those beginning methadone maintenance should know that methadone detox is considered way more difficult than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once on a certain dosage of methadone, there are some detox facilities that will not accept methadone maintenance clients seeing that detox can be so challenging and relapse rates are very high.
