CMS offers a variety of services to help women who are pregnant. Our goal is to empower you as a leader in your recovery, with benefits to you and your baby. Methadone during pregnancy is considered the gold standard of care by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
Among pregnant and postpartum people with OUD, opioid agonist medications increase engagement in prenatal and addiction care and improve parental and child outcomes***. MAT is not harmful to the developing baby, and mothers are encouraged to continue with MAT throughout their pregnancy – mothers can even safely breastfeed!
Women receiving MAT tend to have larger and healthier babies, often more likely to reach full-term than those not receiving treatment.
Mothers actively receiving medication-assisted treatment during pregnancy significantly reduce their risk of relapse, lowering the chance of pre-term birth and complications.
MAT can help pregnant women regulate drug levels during pregnancy, minimizing the risk of withdrawals for the baby in utero.
Medication-assisted treatment helps mothers reduce their drug use and removes them from a drug-seeking environment for a healthier pregnancy and birth.
