Methadone Addiction Treatment Program in New Hampshire

As the nation’s opioid crisis has reached New Hampshire, many of those opioid-addicted individuals find it difficult to break free from the powerful chemical hooks of the drug. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), an estimated 2 million people suffered from an opioid use disorder in 2018. There is an increased risk of contracting blood-borne diseases (from intravenous drug use) and overdose for those individuals struggling with opioid abuse. The biggest obstacle that many individuals addicted to opioids face is the intense cravings for the drug in early recovery. The cravings can be so overpowering that the urge to pick up and use is all the drug-addicted individual can think about. These strong urges and cravings can even persist even after the successful completion of an inpatient medical detox program drug and alcohol rehab centers in New Hampshire. For those struggling to stay clean, these drug cravings can interfere with effective drug rehab treatment and increase the risk of relapse on opioids. Fortunately, there is a solution to the struggle that many faces due to the cravings in early recovery from opioid addiction in New Hampshire. Through the use of evidence-based therapies in combination with medications designed to alleviate the intense cravings, an effective treatment is known as Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) exists. Methadone is one of the MAT programs used to mitigate opioid and opiate cravings. Methadone is also very addictive. So what happens when some one wants to quit using Methadone as MAT? That person will still go through withdrawal. Many times much worse due to the long half life of Methadone. These individuals will need to find a Methadone addiction treatment program in New Hampshire to help them deal with the cravings.

The combination of approved medication with therapy has helped many addicts achieve longer periods of sobriety than they experienced with conventional treatment alone. The medication known as Methadone used for MAT serves several functions. Some of the functions which Methadone MAT provides are to normalize brain chemistry in the addicted individual, reduce cravings, negate the euphoric effects of opioids, and prevent or reduce opioid overdose. In New Hampshire, Methadone treatment is often used for the treatment of opioid use disorder. The ultimate goal of MAT is full recovery from the substance abused by the drug or alcohol addicted individual. There are many added benefits for individuals undergoing medication-assisted treatment, such as improved ability to obtain and maintain employment and an decrease in the risk of overdose from illicit drugs, which invariably increases the individual’s survival rate.

Methadone is one of the most commonly used medications that are used in combination with behavioral therapy in a MAT program. Suboxone is another one. Suboxone is a mix of buprenorphine and naloxone (Narcan). Methadone has been around for decades to treat those addicted to heroin and other opioids. Methadone is itself a long-lasting opioid without the euphoric effects, that also relieves withdrawal symptoms and reduces cravings. Both of these medications have been clinically effective in helping opioid abusers achieve a healthy lifestyle free from addiction when used in conjunction with behavioral therapy.
