At Long Beach Detox, we recognize the importance of adopting comprehensive and effective treatment approaches. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) stands as a pivotal component in our commitment to providing tailored and evidence-based care.
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach that brings together the use of FDA-approved medications with counseling and behavioral therapies to address substance use disorders effectively. MAT is commonly used in the treatment of opioid and alcohol use disorders, helping individuals manage cravings, reduce withdrawal symptoms, and increase their chances of sustained recovery.
One of the primary benefits of MAT is the reduction of cravings for substances. Medications used in MAT can help normalize brain chemistry, diminishing the intense cravings that often contribute to relapse.
MAT assists individuals in managing withdrawal symptoms, making the detoxification process more comfortable and less daunting. This increased comfort can enhance the likelihood of completing the detox phase successfully.
Studies have shown that individuals engaged in MAT are more likely to stay in treatment and complete their recovery programs. Improved treatment retention is crucial for achieving long-term recovery goals.
By addressing both the physical and psychological aspects of addiction, MAT contributes to a reduced risk of relapse. It provides individuals with a stable foundation to engage in counseling and therapy, addressing the underlying issues contributing to substance use.
Long Beach Detox takes a comprehensive and individualized approach to Medication-Assisted Treatment, recognizing that each person’s journey is unique. Our MAT program integrates various key components:
