Methadone maintenance is a method of treatment for people in Le Roy who are dependent on heroin or prescription pain killers. This form of treatment has been around for decades now, and the general idea is that clients are no longer engaged in the drug abusing activities that was driven by their addiction since the methadone they are taking satiates cravings and prevents withdrawal. 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 effective as a replacement for heroin and other prescription opioids.
Individuals involved in methadone maintenance therapy have to dose daily to avoid withdrawal from the methadone itself. This may be logistically and financially challenging, but some people find it a better option than a heroin addiction. However, someone starting on methadone maintenance therapy need to be aware of the fact that methadone detox is considered way more difficult than even heroin detox and withdrawal. Once on a certain dosage of methadone, there are some detoxification centers that won't even accept methadone maintenance clients considering detoxification can be so difficult and relapse rates are considerably high.
