Methadone is a synthetic opioid.
(Heroin is technically an opiate.)
Opiods can have a depressant effect because they are central nervous system depressants. If combined with other med's, it can be magnified. Like vicodin and valium. That would be a combination that would probably depress you and put you to sleep.

The purpose of bonding acetyl molecules to morphine is that it allows the new compound, heroin, to enter the brain 300% faster than morphine alone; That in turn makes heroin three times (3X) more potent than standard morphine on a molecule to molecule basis.
