Question by dayana v: Aside from methadone, are there other medications used in drug treatment programs in Belton, Texas?
My sister, who has been addicted to heroin, really has to get herself treated. I have read stuff about methadone being addictive too. I’m just worried that my sister might get addicted to this too. Are there any other available treatments that are less risky?
