Methadone is a prescription medication utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction and dependency. An Individual who wants to quit using prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Marathon where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and basically replace their addiction with a legal medication.
