Democracyâs main contribution to war is to encourage minority groups that feel exploited by the majority to attempt to secede. The bullying majorityâlike any slave masterârarely lets its subjects go in peace, and thus war breaks out.
Signs and Symptoms of Methadone Abuse. Most people know that methadone is used not only as treatment for opiate addiction but also as a pain reliever. When a person begins use of methadone for pain, they are carefully monitored as the dose is adjusted to the right level, sometimes in a hospital or hospice setting.
Methadone is an opioid medication. An opioid is sometimes called a narcotic. Methadone reduces withdrawal symptoms in people addicted to heroin or other narcotic drugs without causing the high associated with the drug addiction. Methadone is used as a pain reliever and as part of drug addiction detoxification and maintenance programs and is only available from certified pharmacies. You should not use methadone if you have severe asthma or breathing problems, or a bowel obstruction called paralytic ileus.
