Methadone maintenance is a form of treatment for individuals in West Lebanon who are addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This method of treatment has been in existence for decades now, and the overall idea is that individuals are no longer involved in the drug abusing behavior that was caused by their addiction due to the methadone that they are being administered satiates cravings and prevents withdrawal. Like heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and stimulates the same receptors in the brain as heroin and other powerful pain killers. This is what makes methadone so successful as a substitute for heroin and prescription pain killers.
People enrolled in methadone maintenance therapy must take it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This might be financially and logistically difficult, but some feel it is a better choice than a heroin addiction. However, people starting on methadone maintenance should realize that methadone detox is considered way more difficult than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once on a moderate dosage of methadone, there are some detox centers that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients seeing that detoxification can be so difficult and relapse rates are considerably high.
