Methadone is a regulated drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same neural receptors are activated when a person takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in facilities to treat opiate dependent people so that they don't feel the need to become involved in drug seeking behavior, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the symptoms of opiate withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, programs which treat methadone clients only are licensed to dispense methadone to these individuals daily. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance therapy.
Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not usually designed to offer a broad array of extensive recovery services other than daily dosing, although some clinics might deliver individual and group counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. Consequently, it is also a drug which is abused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking further recovery services in El Prado is highly recommended, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies which are successful at long term recovery and preventing relapses.
