Methadone maintenance is a type of treatment for people in McRae Helena who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This form of treatment has been around for decades now, and the overall notion is that clients are no longer wrapped up in the drug seeking behavior that was caused by their addiction since the methadone they are taking satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Like heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and stimulates the same neural receptors in the brain as heroin and other powerful pain killers. This is what makes methadone so effective as a replacement for heroin and prescription pain killers.
People enrolled in methadone maintenance therapy must take it every day to avoid withdrawal symptoms from the methadone itself. This might be logistically and financially challenging, but some find it a better option than a heroin addiction. However, someone starting on methadone maintenance therapy ought to realize that methadone detoxification is considered far more difficult than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once taking a certain dosage of methadone, there are some detox facilities that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients since detox can be very challenging and rates of relapse are very high.
