Methadone maintenance is a method of treatment for people in Newnan who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription opioid medications. This method of treatment has been around for a very long time, and the general notion is that clients are no longer involved in the drug seeking behavior that was driven 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. This is what makes methadone so powerful as a substitute for heroin and prescription pain killers.
People involved in methadone maintenance therapy must dose daily to avoid withdrawal symptoms from the methadone itself. This might be financially and logistically burdensome, but some people feel it is a better option than a heroin addiction. Nevertheless, someone beginning methadone maintenance should know 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 many detoxification centers that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients seeing that detoxification can be very difficult and rates of relapse are considerably high.
