MAT for Opioid Addiction in Rochester
Pathways Rochester provides MAT to help those struggling with opioid misuse. The medication available includes Vivitrol, methadone and Suboxone. The clinic staff can help you understand each option and direct you to the one best for your situation.
They also provide personalized counseling support. This may include individual and group therapy using evidence based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and other proven methods.
The combination of approved medication and counseling allows you to manage cravings and reduce the chance of relapse, which is important because relapse during opioid treatment has a high risk of overdose. Over time, you’ll create a solid foundation for long term recovery and can taper off the medication support if appropriate.
