Benefits of Medication-Assisted Treatment
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is a multifaceted approach to opioid addiction treatment. For adults who take part in MAT, the benefits include receiving prescription medication that can ease the symptoms of opioid withdrawal and participating in counseling sessions that can prepare them for recovery. Many reputable organizations, including the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), have endorsed MAT as an effective means of treating opioid addiction. The prescription medications that are authorized to be used in MAT programs in the U.S. can lessen the cravings and other withdrawal symptoms that occur when a person ends their opioid use. When they are taken as directed within the context of a MAT program, these medications can make it easier for a person to stop using opioids. When a person is no longer under the influence of opioids, they can regain the focus and clarity they need to fully engage in the counseling component of MAT. Counseling sessions can be sources of information, guidance, and shared support for people who are working to gain a solid foothold in early recovery. What to Expect
Fear of change and uncertainty about what to expect in a MAT program can prevent people from getting the professional help that can significantly improve their lives. To help prospective patients overcome these obstacles, we are happy to explain what happens when a person receives care in our center. On a new patient’s first day with us, they usually complete a thorough intake assessment. This includes a physical examination with a doctor and a discussion of their past opioid use, their treatment history, and other relevant matters. After the assessment, the doctor who conducted the patient’s exam may write them a prescription for methadone, Suboxone, or buprenorphine. The doctor will explain the features and potential side effects of the medication they prescribe, and they can answer any questions the patient has. We also typically schedule the patient’s initial counseling sessions during their first visit to our center. We provide both individual and group counseling. During these sessions, patients can learn about the disease of addiction, develop and practice essential relapse prevention skills, and share support with other adults who are working toward a similar goal.
