Methadone is a medication utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. An Individual who wants to stop taking prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Falls Church where they take it daily to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication.
