Methadone maintenance is a method of treatment for people in Perryopolis 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 concept is that individuals are no longer involved in the drug seeking activities that was caused by their addiction because the methadone that they are being administered satiates cravings and prevents withdrawal. Like heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist which stimulates the same neural receptors in the brain as heroin. This is what makes methadone so successful as a replacement for heroin and prescription pain killers.
People enrolled in methadone maintenance have to take it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This may be logistically and financially difficult, but some feel it is a better alternative to a heroin addiction. However, people beginning methadone maintenance therapy should be aware of the fact that methadone detoxification is considered far more difficult than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once on a certain dosage of methadone, there are many detox facilities that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients because detoxification can be very challenging and relapse rates are considerably high.
