Methadone maintenance is a type of treatment for people in Veradale 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 concept is that individuals are no longer wrapped up in the drug seeking behavior that was caused by their addiction due to the methadone that they are being administered satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist which stimulates the same neurons in the brain as heroin and other powerful pain killers. This is what makes methadone so effective as a substitute for heroin and prescription pain killers.
Clients involved 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 find it a better option than a heroin addiction. However, people starting on methadone maintenance therapy should be aware of the fact that methadone detoxification is considered far more difficult than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once on a high dosage of methadone, there are some detoxification facilities that will not take methadone maintenance clients seeing that detox can be very challenging and relapse rates are very high.
