Practical Factors

Methadone is a long-acting full opioid agonist that has a long history in the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD). It was the first opioid agonist with OUD as an indication for use. Methadone was developed for OUD during a time of prohibition and criminalization of both addiction and the use of opioid agonists for addiction treatment, which resulted in methadone being heavily regulated at multiple levels. Methadone is frequently used in short-term withdrawal management (i.e., detoxification) and in long-term treatment, with the latter producing better treatment outcomes. This chapter explores the basic pharmacology of methadone and the development of methadone for OUD and its accompanying regulations, discusses the place of methadone in treatment for OUD, reviews the effectiveness of methadone treatment, and visits some practical factors related to methadone as part of treatment for OUD.
