Methadone is a drug used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. An Individual who wants to quit abusing heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Hebbronville where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and basically replace their addiction with a legal medication.
