What is Narcotic Maintenance?

Narcotic maintenance is an accepted medical treatment for opiate dependance, utilizing methadone. It is regulated by State and Federal agencies.

Methadone is a synthetic opiate which is administered orally on a daily basis. After stabilization on a fixed dose, craving for opiates disappears and physical withdrawal symptoms are eliminated. The duration of action of methadone is much longer than other opiates.

Methadone is generally well tolerated. Side effects are usually mild and easily managed.
