What Is Medication Assisted Treatment in Phoenix, AZ?

 

**Rehab (treatment) can be local.  CleanSlate offers drug and alcohol addiction treatment on an out-patient basis, right here in town.**

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is a type of substance abuse treatment using medications to not only help treat the disorder but also to keep a patient in recovery and prevent possible overdoses in the future. MATs are most successfully used when treated for alcohol dependency and opioid addiction.

If you or a loved one are battling addiction, read on to learn about MAT and how it could be the best option for treatment that lasts.

What Is Medication-Assisted Treatment?

MAT is an approach to addiction in which you treat the whole patient and not the addiction you have. We do this by using medication, counseling, and behavioral therapy. This means that each patient has a program that is designed for their individual needs.

This is a great option for your alcohol and drug addiction treatment if you have a co-occurring disorder. An underlying, or co-occurring disorder, can range from mental illness to other illnesses.

Sometimes, working on the underlying disorders is also the key to helping treat the addiction.

The Goal of MAT

The goal of medication-assisted treatment is simple: full recovery. This means successful detoxification from the substance you are addicted to having more direction in your life. For a patient to get the full benefit of MAT, they need to fully immerse themselves in the treatment process.

Scientists have shown the MAT approach to addiction treatment to have many significant benefits for the patient. This includes improving patient survival and increasing employment for patients.

Another bonus of medication-assisted treatment is that research has shown that this type of alcohol and drug rehab can lower the risk of contracting HIV or Hep C.

Medications

There are many FDA-approved medications that are used to treat both opioid and alcohol abuse. However, no medications are prescribed as a cure for addiction rather as a tool to help on the road to recovery.

Alcohol Abuse

There are 3 medications that are effective in the treatment of alcohol addiction: acamprosate, disulfiram, and naltrexone. These are most effective when a patient fully engages and participates in their MAT program.

Opioid Dependency

For short-acting opioids like heroin, buprenorphine, methadone, and naltrexone are a great help on the road to recovery, and to keep from relapse. All 3 of these medications have been proven to be safe to use over a lifetime, even.

Opioid Overdose Prevention

Considered by World Health Organization (WHO) to be the number one medication to help with overdose, people use Naloxone because it reverses the toxic effects of an overdose in an extremely effective way.
