Methadone

An opiate that blocks the high from drugs like heroin. You'll still feel something but you will not feel that same high and you will not need more. Metadone does not give the user a high but rather a "glow". That same fuzzy feeling without the rush. Although, mixed with xanax methadone can be deadly (in high doses) and can cause a heroin like high. Which is one reason methadone has gotten a lot of negative publicity and has been deverted to the streets. Many Drs. are opting to put pain patients on methadone to get out of pricey lawsuits from oxycontin. Used in place of Rx drug addiction and heroin. An addict can get methadone for free by going on BHL or welfare, by checking into a clinic. Most clinic have waiting list but will take on as many as a few 1000 patients at one time. It is all given to addicts more discretely through a medical doctor. Has become very popular with chronic pain patients. Negative side effects: 1/2 month withdrawal, sweating, and loss of libido. Not a short term answer for addiction.
