Aside from methadone, are there other medications used in drug treatment program!


Question:

Aside from methadone, are there other medications used in drug treatment programs in Belton, Texas?

My sister, who has been addicted to heroin, really has to get herself treated. I have read stuff about methadone being addictive too. I'm just worried that my sister might get addicted to this too. Are there any other available treatments that are less risky?


Answers:

As far as I know, there are some drug treatment programs that use buprenorphine instead of methadone. This is considered as less addictive and is administered at less dosages than methadone. In finding drug rehabs, you can check out the links that I have provided below.
