New Orleans, a city with a 2019 estimated population of 390,144, is the most populous city in the U.S state of Louisiana. Since it is home to hundreds of thousands of people, it has a high probability of being home to multiple people experiencing opioid use disorder. Fortunately, in its total area of 906.1 km², some methadone clinics could be found. People in or around the city who need medical help to overcome opioid addiction may walk into any methadone clinic New Orleans for medication-assisted treatment. Medical treatment is an effective way of overcoming opioid use disorder. One of the drugs medication-assisted treatment practitioners use for this condition is methadone. Doses of methadone are available in liquid, powder, and diskettes forms. Each dose could restore calmness to the body, relieve pains, and minimize craving. Unlike opioids, methadone lasts long in the body, so the patient may not have to take it as much as opioids. It is also safe and without negative side effects if taken in line with the recommendations of the health provider. Self-mediation is dangerous, however. Before any dose of methadone is dispensed, the health provider considers the health history of the patient. All methadone clinics in Louisiana require the certification of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
