  1. methadon

    Methadone is a synthetic drug, used as a pain reliever and as part of drug addiction detoxification and maintenance programs. It is used to prevent withdrawal symptoms in people who are addicted to opiate drugs such as heroin. Methadone works by producing similar effects to these drugs, reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms, but without the euphoric or sedating effects produced by the drugs themselves. It is a controlled substance and requires a prescription from a physician.
