Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to traditional opioids like painkillers and heroin. So the abuse potential is there. And nearly all methadone clinics don't provide additional supports (behavioral health or otherwise). They more or less function as pill mills.
I don't need to own the entire system with this stuff, but it's very hard to set up (unfortunately). Hoping more people wake up and are able to do similar things. And we're going to keep expanding access to treatment.
We only accept medicaid (for the poor in the US), who otherwise wouldn't have access to free treatment. They pay $300-500 per month for Suboxone at cash clinics, but typically don't get as much behavioral health treatment.
