Types Of Heroin Treatment Programs
DETOX: Heroin addiction can sometimes include other drugs so it is very important to make sure that you disclose all of the drugs you are currently taking and have taken in the past 6 months. This will help the detox center better diagnose and prescribe the best medications to make your detox go smoothly and as pain-free as possible. Do not try to detox on your own. Heroin withdrawal can last anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the length of heroin use, and the amount of heroin being abused on a daily basis.
Inpatient rehabs: Detox should be followed by an extensive stay, at a heroin inpatient treatment program. Most of the people who have fought heroin addiction have one thing in common: They recovered from their addiction at an inpatient heroin rehab center. Some people can find sobriety in an outpatient treatment program but due to the temptations and availability to go find heroin, this type of program is less effective in treating the addiction as a whole. The typical stay for someone recovering from heroin addiction can vary from center to center and usually consists of 30-90-day programs.
Private Inpatient drug rehabs offer the best results for long-lasting sobriety from Heroin addiction. The best treatment facilities for heroin will offer different types of treatment models and detox options for the person who is suffering from the adverse effects of heroin.
Court-ordered treatment: There are many Drug Rehab Facilities that accept criminal justice clients and people with open court cases as an alternative to jail. County and state courts will often suggest treatment in place of jail time for some first-time offender cases.
State-funded heroin treatment programs: Maine has set aside some resources for the treatment of heroin addiction. Please call our specialists to find out if you qualify for these state-funded rehab programs that are offered in Maine.

Maine Drug Addiction Stats
There have been many recent reports that heroin has become less expensive than it has been in years. This price shift in Maine has caused heroin to become a cheaper alternative for people who have developed an addiction to opioids in the form of pharmaceuticals. Due to the short supply of pharmaceutical drugs, heroin has become an inexpensive way to keep from going through the painful withdrawal symptoms from prescription medications. One of the main reasons that Maine is having a heroin epidemic is the recent crackdown on prescription medications and the changing of the pills to make them harder to crush and snort for a quick high. This is the main contributing factor to the rapid rise in heroin addiction in Maine. Prescription pain pills can often be overprescribed to patients who realize that they have become dependent on the drug. With recent crackdowns in Maine on opioid abuse, there has been a huge resurgence of heroin-addicted people in Maine. Adding to the problem is the fact that heroin is often times cut with Fentanyl (used for pain relief for end-stage cancer patients) and the potency can vary, leading to elevated heroin overdose deaths in Maine. The market is flooded with high-quality, low-cost heroin coming up from New York. A 6 dollar bag of heroin in New York can fetch as much as 40 dollars in northern New England regions. This gives a hefty profit margin for dealers looking to cash in on the recent heroin problem, making the problem even worse.Maine health data show the abuse of heroin is increasing and Maine’s Office of Substance Abuse reports that heroin has surpassed cocaine as the primary drug health threat in the state. The number of heroin overdose deaths increased from two in 1995 to eight in 1998. The total number of clients admitted to drug treatment programs for heroin abuse continues to increase; there was a 29 percent rise during the first 9 months of 2000. Moreover, heroin treatment admissions have consistently surpassed cocaine admissions since 1997, and during the first 9 months of 2000, heroin treatment admissions outpaced cocaine admissions by 59 percent. The number of clients admitted to treatment facilities for heroin abuse increased steadily from 1995 (205) through September 2000 (374). Correlating with this data, employees at Shaw House, a shelter for teens in Bangor, first noticed clients using heroin in the fall of 1999. read the full report HERE
