📝 Description
Methadone is a synthetic opioid used primarily for the treatment of opioid dependence and for chronic pain management. In addiction treatment, it helps to reduce opioid cravings and withdrawal symptoms by acting as a long-acting opioid agonist, allowing individuals to stabilize and engage in recovery without the highs and lows associated with illicit opioid use.
