About Medication-Assisted Treatment Nearby

Medication-assisted treatment (also commonly known as MAT) is an addiction treatment option which utilizes medications such as Vivitrol and/or Suboxone, along with counseling and behavioral therapies. The goal is to provide a “whole-patient” approach to the addiction treatment/substance use disorders. Medication-assisted treatment is primarily used for opioid addiction such as prescription painkillers or heroin. The medications used during MAT can help to normalize brain chemistry while blocking the euphoric/pleasant effects of both opioids and alcohol. The Food and Drug Administration has approved medication-assisted treatment along with the medications used.
