The disease of addiction can be one of the most devastating illnesses possible. This mental illness tends to claim lives with little or no warning, causing families and communities inconceivable grief and trauma.

Nearly 91 people die every day from Opioid related overdoses in the United States, according to the Center for Disease Control. With such high fatality statistics, the pressure is on to find a treatment for Opioid addiction that works.

Methadone has been used for decades to treat individuals with an Opioids related substance abuse disorder. Use of Methadone is typically referred to as medication-assisted treatment, or MAT.
