In 1964, Dole and Nyswander treated 22 heroin addicted patients in New York with methadone, a drug previously known as a potent, addictive painkiller. They demonstrated that coupled with psychosocial interventions all these patients stopped heroin use and could resume family and social responsibilities. Since then methadone has been widely used in heroin addiction treatment programmes throughout the world.
