Methadone maintenance is a method of treatment for clients in Miami who are addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This form of treatment has been around for a very long time, and the overall notion is that individuals are no longer involved in the drug abusing activities that was brought on by their addiction because the methadone that they are being administered satiates 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 successful as a replacement for heroin and other prescription opioids.
Individuals enrolled in methadone maintenance have to take it every day to avoid withdrawal symptoms from the methadone itself. This can be logistically and financially burdensome, but some people find it a better alternative to a heroin addiction. Nevertheless, someone beginning methadone maintenance need to realize that methadone detox is considered far more challenging than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once on a certain dosage of methadone, there are some detox centers that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients because detox can be so difficult and rates of relapse are considerably high.
