Methadone maintenance is a type of treatment for people in Bothell who are addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This type of treatment has been in existence for a very long time, and the general notion is that individuals are no longer wrapped up in the drug seeking activities that was driven by their addiction due to the methadone they are taking satiates cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist which stimulates the same neural receptors in the brain as heroin and other powerful pain killers. This is what makes methadone so successful as a substitute for heroin and prescription pain killers.
People enrolled in methadone maintenance have to take it every day to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This might be financially and logistically difficult, but some feel it is a better choice than a heroin addiction. Nevertheless, people starting on methadone maintenance need to be aware of the fact that methadone detoxification is considered way more challenging than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once taking a moderate dosage of methadone, there are many detoxification centers that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients considering detox can be very challenging and relapse rates are very high.
