Methadone is a synthetic opioid medication, often used to treat opioid use disorder or manage chronic pain. It helps reduce cravings without producing the “high” associated with other opioids.
Since methadone binds to the same brain receptors as opioids, it can be addictive. It is technically categorized as an opioid and should only be used as a short-term solution, if at all.
Methadone addiction treatment can vary depending on your initial dependence. At Diamond House Detox, our programs have different durations that can be lengthened or shortened to taper you off of methadone safely.
