Usually it's given for heroine addiction, but research has been done to see if it will be effective on cocaine addiction. Here's a link: jointogether.org/ news/ research/ summaries/ 2008/ scientists-say-methadone-like.html

No, Absolutely not. Methadone is far worse that cocaine as far as the physical addiction and withdraw ls go. There is no cure for cocaine addiction except to abstain forever. it takes a while, but the withdrawls from cocain are mostly in your head. In three days your body no longer want it, it si only the memory of it that makes you want it again. Yake one day at a time. Seriously, I know.
