Medication- Assisted- Treatement
MAT via office-visit, Telehealth or Concierge
Medication-assisted treatment is the use of FDA-approved medications, in combination with counseling, behavioral therapies, and social support; to provide a “whole-patient” approach to the treatment of substance use and opioid use disorders. When used to treat opioid addiction, MAT stabilizes brain chemistry, blocks the euphoric effects of opioids (the “high”), relieves physiological cravings, and normalizes body functions.
Benefits
Benefits of MAT include improving the capacity of participants to reduce illicit drug use, disease rates, and overdose events, as well as successfully fulfilling other conditions of court involvement, including participation in treatment. Further, across the criminal justice system, MAT has been found to reduce criminal activity, arrests, as well as probation revocation, and reincarceration.
​
Studies have shown that individuals who have access to the three MAT drug options- Suboxone, Subutex and Sublocade, in a treatment capacity are more likely to remain in treatment and abstain from illegal drugs or their substance of abuse than individuals who receive only behavior modification counseling or no treatment.
​
MAT does not “substitute one drug for another.” This is in contrast to the extreme highs and lows that result from the waxing and waning in blood levels of short-acting opioids. Instead, these medications relieve withdrawal symptoms and physiological cravings and bring about a biochemical balance in the body. They help people return to physical and psychological stability, and live their lives just like anyone else.

Treatment options
Suboxone
Suboxone is a combination of two drugs, buprenorphine and naloxone, that treats opioid use disorder (OUD). OUD is a real medical condition, just like diabetes or cancer, and is not anyone’s fault. More and more doctors are realizing that medication is a powerful tool for treating OUD, especially because abstinence-based programs (when you stop using opioids cold turkey) often don’t work. Just as antibiotics can help you recover from an infection, medication for OUD (MOUD) can help you recover from addiction.
Subutex
Similar medication to Suboxone but without Naloxone
Sublocade
SUBLOCADE® is a prescription monthly injection used to treat adults with moderate to severe addiction (dependence) to opioid drugs (prescription or illegal) who have received an oral transmucosal (used under the tongue or inside the cheek) buprenorphine-containing medicine at a dose that controls withdrawal symptoms for at least 7 days. SUBLOCADE is part of a complete treatment plan that should include counseling.
