Methadone maintenance is a form of treatment for people in Randolph who are dependent and addicted to heroin or prescription opioid medications. This method of treatment has been in existence for decades now, and the general idea is that clients are no longer wrapped up in the drug seeking activities that was driven by their addiction due to the methadone that they are being administered satiates cravings and prevents withdrawal. Similar to heroin, methadone is a full opioid agonist and activates the same neurons 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 must dose on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal symptoms from the methadone itself. This might be financially and logistically burdensome, but some people find it a better choice than a heroin addiction. Nevertheless, those beginning methadone maintenance therapy need to be aware of the fact that methadone detox is considered way more challenging than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once taking a high dosage of methadone, there are many detoxification centers that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients because detox can be very difficult and rates of relapse are considerably high.
