I am sorry, I don't know the answer to your question but I would like to get the advice ball rolling by saying that I've heard that they wean addicts like heroin users and cocaine abusers and etc off their respective drugs and get them on to a weaker/less harmful one, methadone, which is also a drug but not as detrimental as what they originally were addicted to. These people go to a methadone clinic for this, kind of like a rehab center for them. I am guessing this goes for opiates too. Here: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) gives the first search result link as Methadone Treatment Centers - Methadone Clinics for Opiate, Heroin ... so maybe you can look there for more info too.
