Methadone is a synthetic opiate medication that has been used to treat pain and also to provide relief to those struggling with heroin and opiate addiction. It works to reduce drug cravings, and offer some alleviation of withdrawal symptoms like nausea, diarrhea, insomnia, muscle aches, irritability, and anxiety. It’s also been shown to improve mood and social productivity, which are important for heroin or opioid withdrawal treatment in our Jacksonville rehabilitation setting.
