Victory Recovery Partners strives to help its patients overcome their addictions and lead better and healthier lives. Founded in 2018, Victory now has five locations on Long Island, NY, including Farmingville, Massapequa Park, Hicksville, Hempstead, and Shirley. Over recent years, we have noticed first-hand how the opioid crisis is affecting our patients and their loved ones, too. To help combat these addictions, and help our patients to recover, Victory is now offering Methadone treatment at its Farmingville location.
So, what exactly is Methadone? How does it work? Methadone is a synthetic opioid medication primarily used in the treatment of opioid addiction, particularly in opioid maintenance programs. It is classified as a long-acting opioid agonist. Methadone is commonly used as a maintenance medication for individuals who are dependent on opioids, such as heroin or prescription painkillers (e.g., oxycodone, hydrocodone). It helps reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings, allowing individuals to stabilize their lives and work on recovery. Methadone has a long duration of action, which means it can be administered once a day in most cases, making it suitable for opioid maintenance treatment. Methadone helps reduce the intense cravings associated with opioid addiction, making it easier for individuals to abstain from using opioids. We couldn’t be more excited to begin offering this treatment to our patients.
While Methadone can prove to be a very successful treatment method, there is some important information that should be noted. It's important to emphasize that Methadone treatment should only be initiated and monitored by healthcare professionals experienced in addiction medicine. It should be part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes counseling, therapy, and other support services to address the underlying causes of addiction and promote long-term recovery. Methadone treatment can be highly effective in helping individuals manage opioid addiction, but it is not a standalone solution and should be used as part of a broader treatment approach.
Victory separates itself from other addiction and recovery centers by offering total care (all services) under one roof. Victory is staffed with counselors, therapists, PAs, psychiatrists, medical assistants and other wellness and behavioral health providers, allowing patients to receive the complete care that they need to break free from the chains of addiction.
