Opioid Treatment and Medications
They treat adults who meet criteria for moderate or severe opioid use disorder through a combination of medication and counseling, using 2 medications: Buprenorphine, a dissolving tablet or sublingual film placed under the tongue, and Methadone, provided daily as a liquid. Clients also participate in individual sessions, group services, and support for strengthening family and community recovery networks.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach that pairs FDA-approved medications with counseling to treat addiction. The medications are used to reduce cravings, ease withdrawal symptoms, or block the effects of substances. More about MAT
