Methadone is a prescription drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors in the brain are triggered when someone uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to help opiate addicted clients so that they don't feel the need to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the effects of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, clinics that treat methadone clients only are authorized to administer methadone to these individuals daily. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.
Programs which treat methadone clients only are not commonly set up to provide a wide range of comprehensive treatment services beyond daily dosing, although some might provide group and individual counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking further rehabilitation services in Dardenne Prairie is highly recommended, such as therapy, counseling and cognitive behavioral therapies which are successful at long term recovery and preventing relapses.
