Medication-Assisted Addiction Treatment Services at Our Metairie Location

Our Metairie treatment center specializes in medication-assisted treatment. We offer two different options that can curb cravings, soothe withdrawal symptoms and reduce your risk of overdose:

• Buprenorphine: Even though the prescription medication buprenorphine is an opioid, it is also a highly effective treatment. It helps activate opioid receptors and block other opioids from taking effect. Its ceiling effect also makes misuse more difficult.
• Suboxone: This prescription is a combination of buprenorphine and an opioid antagonist called naloxone that can block or reverse the effects of opioids. If misused, Suboxone can cause unpleasant withdrawal symptoms.

Recovery is a lifelong process. Medication-assisted treatment is just the first step. Counseling is a powerful tool that teaches you the skills you need to address underlying triggers behind addiction. It also reminds you that you are not alone in your journey to sobriety. Ask an AppleGate Recovery staff member or medical provider about counseling options.
