Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach to treatment that can help those in recovery from addiction focus on building a strong foundation for sobriety. A commonly held misconception about medication-assisted treatment is that it simply exchanges one substance for another and that those who take medications while in recovery are not really sober. However, this stigma surrounding MAT can keep those in recovery from benefitting from this highly effective approach to addiction treatment. In reality, medication-assisted treatment can work when talk therapy alone might not. In our MAT program in New Hampshire, clients struggling with opioid or alcohol addiction can take medications that curb cravings and relieve withdrawal symptoms. This allows our clients to focus entirely on working through the underlying causes of addiction with a lower risk of relapse.

What Is Medication-Assisted Treatment?
Medication-assisted treatment is a comprehensive approach to treatment that combines medication with talk therapy and other forms of support. This evidence-based approach has been proven to be effective in treating addiction, particularly when it comes to opioids and alcohol. In our program, clients can take medications that help to reduce cravings and manage withdrawal symptoms while they work on addressing the underlying causes of addiction in talk therapy.
This approach to treatment is most effective in treating opioid and alcohol addiction. The FDA-approved medications that treat opioid and alcohol use disorders are highly effective at reducing withdrawal symptoms and easing cravings.
