How medication-assisted treatment enhances the recovery process for patients recovering from opioid addiction

What is Medication-Assisted Treatment?

Medication-Assisted Treatment (also known as MAT) combines counseling and behavioral therapies along with the use of medication. MAT has proven to be extremely effective in the treatment of opioid use disorders (OUD) by helping patients achieve sustainable recovery with a lower risk of relapse.

Does Medication Assisted Treatment work?

MAT has proven to be the most effective intervention in treating patients with Opioid Use Dependence (OUD).  It is significantly more effective than either medication or behavioral treatment alone.

Approved Medications for use with MAT

in MAT Medication Assisted Treatment Addiction Services Addiction Recovery

The FDA has approved three drugs to be used in MAT for opioid dependence, all of which have proven to be safe and effective when combined with counseling and psychosocial support.

These drugs include methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone.  Due to safety reasons, South Dayton Recovery & Addictions Services uses a buprenorphine product to treat our patients.  Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone and comes in either film or tablet form for sublingual use.  Occasionally patients will require Subutex (buprenorphine) sublingual tablets or Zubsolv (combination of buprenorphine and naloxone) sublingual tablets.  Our doctor will help identify which medication will work best for you to treat your opioid addiction.
