G’day Help Me Please,

Thanks for the question.

To be prescribed methadone, your boyfriend would have to be considered as an addict. Methadone has traditionally been provided to the addiction population in a highly regulated methadone clinic, generally associated with an outpatient department of a hospital. Clinics such as these stem from programs set up during the Nixon administration to combat heroin use, first in Washington, D.C., then nationwide. In addition to obtaining a daily methadone dose, people who go to this type of clinic for addiction treatment must attend some type of psychological counseling for their addiction. Frequently, they are also required to attend local 12-step programs.
