Methadone maintenance is a form of treatment for people in Colwich who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This type of treatment has been around for decades now, and the overall notion is that clients are no longer engaged in the drug abusing behavior that was caused by their addiction due to the methadone they are taking satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Like heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist which stimulates the same neurons in the brain as heroin. This is what makes methadone so successful as a substitute for heroin and other prescription opioids.
People enrolled in methadone maintenance have to dose daily to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This can be financially and logistically difficult, but some find it a better choice than a heroin addiction. Nevertheless, someone starting on methadone maintenance should realize that methadone detoxification is considered far more difficult than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once on a moderate dosage of methadone, there are some detox facilities that won't even take methadone maintenance clients since detoxification can be very difficult and rates of relapse are considerably high.
