I think methadone might be the worst solution for this girl.

Methadone is most definitely NOT the answer (unless the question is "What's the worst possible way to get off of heroin").


edit: Methadone withdrawal can take weeks (as opposed to a few days for heroin withdrawal). If someone is going to keep taking opiates forever, Methadone is the least destructive. If they are going to be coming off of opiates at some time, then Methadone is a terrible choice.
