Methadone maintenance is a type of treatment for clients in Palm Bay who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This type of treatment has been around for a very long time, and the overall notion is that people are no longer wrapped up in the drug using activities that was driven by their addiction since the methadone that they are being administered satiates cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and stimulates the same neural receptors in the brain as heroin. This is what makes methadone so effective as a substitute for heroin and other prescription opioids.
Individuals involved in methadone maintenance therapy must dose every day to avoid withdrawal symptoms from the methadone itself. This might be financially and logistically burdensome, but some feel it is a better choice than a heroin addiction. However, people starting on methadone maintenance should realize that methadone detoxification is considered way more challenging than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once taking a moderate dosage of methadone, there are some detox centers that won't even take methadone maintenance clients seeing that detox can be so challenging and rates of relapse are considerably high.
