Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Methadone is a medication that is provided as an alternative to heroin to help manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings. It is a type of opioid that binds to the same receptors as heroin but doesn't produce the same euphoric effects. This drug is commonly used in opioid replacement therapy and is considered an effective treatment for heroin addiction. Morphine is not typically used to treat heroin addiction but may be used in certain medical contexts for pain management. LSD and amphetamines are not used to treat heroin addiction and may even worsen symptoms.
