  • Treatment of opioid use disorder consits of a comprehensive approach that may include the use of Buprenorphine, Suboxone, and Sublocade.

  • Suboxone is a prescription medication used to treat opioid addiction. It contains two active ingredients: buprenorphine and naloxone.

  • Treatment of alcohol use disorder may include medications such as Naltrexone or Vivitrol. There are other options and will be individualized.

  • Vivitrol helps reduce cravings and the pleasurable effects of alcohol, making it easier for individuals to avoid drinking. Vivitrol blocks the euphoric and sedative effects of opioids, which helps prevent relapse by reducing the incentive to use these substances. Vivitrol is a long-acting medication administered via injection, it provides a steady level of medication in the body over a month.
