Methadone Maintenance - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Jordan, MT.

Methadone maintenance is a form of treatment for clients in Jordan who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription opioid medications. This form of treatment has been around for a very long time, and the general notion is that people are no longer engaged in the drug using activities that was driven by their addiction due to the methadone they are taking satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist which stimulates the same neural receptors 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 must dose every day to avoid withdrawal symptoms from the methadone itself. This might be logistically and financially difficult, but some people feel it is a better choice than a heroin addiction. Nevertheless, those starting on methadone maintenance should realize that methadone detoxification is considered far more challenging than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once taking a moderate dosage of methadone, there are some detox facilities that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients seeing that detoxification can be so difficult and relapse rates are very high.
