Methadone Maintenance - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Tomball, TX.

Methadone maintenance is a form of treatment for individuals in Tomball who are addicted to heroin or prescription pain killers. This form of treatment has been in existence for decades now, and the overall idea is that clients are no longer engaged in the drug abusing activities that was brought on by their addiction since 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 receptors in the brain as heroin. This is what makes methadone so successful as a replacement for heroin and other prescription opioids.

Clients enrolled in methadone maintenance must dose every day to avoid withdrawal symptoms from the methadone itself. This can be financially and logistically challenging, but some people find it a better option than a heroin addiction. However, someone beginning methadone maintenance therapy ought to be aware of the fact that methadone detox is considered way more difficult than even heroin detoxification and withdrawal. Once on a moderate dosage of methadone, there are many detoxification facilities that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients because detox can be very difficult and rates of relapse are considerably high.
