Methadone Maintenance - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Greensboro, NC.

Methadone maintenance is a method of treatment for individuals in Greensboro who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This method of treatment has been around for decades now, and the general notion is that clients are no longer wrapped up in the drug abusing behavior that was driven by their addiction since the methadone they are taking satisfies cravings and prevents withdrawal symptoms. Like heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and stimulates the same neural receptors in the brain as heroin. This is what makes methadone so successful as a replacement for heroin and prescription pain killers.

Clients involved in methadone maintenance therapy must dose on a daily basis 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. Nevertheless, people starting on methadone maintenance therapy ought to realize that methadone detox is considered way more challenging than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once on a certain dosage of methadone, there are many detoxification centers that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients because detox can be so difficult and relapse rates are considerably high.
