Methadone
Methadone is a long-lasting, affordable medication that alleviates withdrawal symptoms and prevents cravings.
Naltrexone is a trusted, FDA-approved medication that can help you overcome cravings and stay on track. Our compassionate team is dedicated to providing personalized, medication-assisted treatment to help you achieve long-term recovery and reclaim your life.
Naltrexone is a potent opioid antagonist that works by blocking the effects of illicit opioids, occupying opioid receptors in the brain. This medication is available in two forms: a daily pill or an injectable option, like the well-known Vivitrol®. The injectable form is administered by a healthcare provider once every 28 days, providing a convenient alternative for those who prefer not to take daily medication.
While naltrexone doesn’t relieve withdrawal symptoms, it effectively reduces cravings, making it easier for patients to stay committed to their treatment plan. This approach supports a sustainable recovery, empowering individuals to reclaim their lives from addiction.
With medication-assisted treatment, patients receive a comprehensive, tailored treatment plan that addresses all aspects of their addiction. Like other MAT options, naltrexone is an effective way to help patients remain in treatment and avoid relapse. The primary benefits of naltrexone treatment include:
Naltrexone is available as a daily pill or monthly injection, providing convenient dosing and administration options that meet patients’ unique needs.
Naltrexone effectively minimizes alcohol and opioid cravings to help patients stay in treatment and avoid relapse.
Because naltrexone occupies opioid receptors in the brain, it successfully blocks feelings of euphoria from illicit opioids without forming new habits.
Naltrexone is a long-lasting injection that is administered every 28 days, reducing chances of missed doses.
