Methadone maintenance is a type of treatment for people in Mount Holly 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 overall idea is that individuals are no longer involved in the drug abusing activities that was caused by their addiction due to the methadone that they are being administered satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist which activates the same receptors in the brain as heroin. This is what makes methadone so powerful as a replacement for heroin and prescription pain killers.
Clients involved in methadone maintenance therapy have to dose daily to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This may be logistically and financially challenging, but some people find it a better alternative to a heroin addiction. However, people beginning methadone maintenance therapy should be aware of the fact that methadone detoxification is known to be far more challenging than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once on a certain dosage of methadone, there are some detoxification programs that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients seeing that detox can be so challenging and rates of relapse are very high.
