methadone has been researched along with Hepatitis A in 10 studies
Methadone: A synthetic opioid that is used as the hydrochloride. It is an opioid analgesic that is primarily a mu-opioid agonist. It has actions and uses similar to those of MORPHINE. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1082-3)
methadone : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of dextromethadone and levomethadone. It is a opioid analgesic which is used as a painkiller and as a substitute for heroin in the treatment of heroin addiction.
6-(dimethylamino)-4,4-diphenylheptan-3-one : A ketone that is heptan-3-one substituted by a dimethylamino group at position 6 and two phenyl groups at position 4.
Hepatitis A: INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by a member of the HEPATOVIRUS genus, HUMAN HEPATITIS A VIRUS. It can be transmitted through fecal contamination of food or water.

"This will be assessed based on the number of participants who attend an appointment at the Viral Hepatitis Clinic within 60 days of enrolling in the study. A participant is considered linked to care if he/she attends an appointment at the clinic. A participant is considered not linked to care if he/she does not attend an appointment at the clinic. Whether a participant linked to care will be determined by looking at the medical record, where all attended appointments are documented. If no attended appointment is documented, this will be considered non-attendance/not linked to care." (NCT02707991)
