Methadone maintenance is a type of treatment for people in Hoquiam who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription opioid medications. This method of treatment has been in existence for decades now, and the overall idea is that clients are no longer wrapped up in the drug using behavior that was caused by their addiction since the methadone they are taking satiates cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and activates 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.
Clients involved in methadone maintenance therapy have to take it every day to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This may be logistically and financially challenging, but some people feel it is a better option than a heroin addiction. Nevertheless, someone beginning methadone maintenance need to realize that methadone detoxification is known to be way more challenging than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once taking a high dosage of methadone, there are many detox programs that will not accept methadone maintenance clients seeing that detoxification can be very challenging and rates of relapse are very high.
