The Process of Treatment of Opiate Addiction

The treatment of opiate addiction typically involves a combination of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and behavioral therapy. MAT involves the use of medications such as methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone to manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings. These medications can be administered in a clinical setting or prescribed for use at home. The choice of medication depends on the severity of the addiction and other individual factors.
