Methadone

While used for treatment, Methadone is a long-acting opioid that can become a lifelong addiction if not strictly controlled.

The Substitution Trap

Methadone is a long-acting synthetic opioid. It is intended to help heroin users stabilize their lives, but without a plan to eventually quit, many find themselves 'chained' to the clinic for life.

Physical Symptoms

* **Sweating:** Profuse sweating even in cool weather. * **Weight:** Significant weight gain and bloating. * **Sexual Health:** Severe hormonal imbalances and loss of libido.

Long-Term Risks

* **Bone Density:** Long-term use can lead to fragile bones and joint pain. * **Respiratory Suppression:** Dangerous when combined with alcohol or Benzos. * **Lethargy:** Constant 'fog' and lack of true emotions.
