Methadone maintenance is a type of treatment for people in Chesaning who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This type of treatment has been around for decades now, and the overall concept is that people are no longer involved in the drug seeking behavior that was driven by their addiction due to the methadone that they are being administered satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and stimulates the same receptors in the brain as heroin and other powerful pain killers. This is what makes methadone so successful as a substitute for heroin and other prescription opioids.
Clients involved in methadone maintenance therapy must dose every day to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This might be logistically and financially challenging, but some people find it a better choice than a heroin addiction. However, those starting on methadone maintenance therapy need to know that methadone detox is known to be far more difficult than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once taking a high dosage of methadone, there are some detox facilities that will not accept methadone maintenance clients since detoxification can be very challenging and rates of relapse are considerably high.
