When a person is addicted to heroin or another type of opioid, such as prescription painkillers, the withdrawal that occurs can often be enough to keep a person trapped in his or her addiction. Medication assisted treatment is designed to further a person's recovery process by alleviating withdrawal, reducing cravings, and blocking the effects of opioids through the use of medications, or maintenance drugs, such as methadone, Suboxone, Subutex, and Vivitrol. Decades of research has demonstrated that this method for treating an opioid addiction is not only safe, but effective in helping people regain control over their lives. Benefits of Medication Assisted Treatment An opioid addiction is one of the most difficult types of addiction to overcome. Those who are prescribed methadone, Subutex, Suboxone, or Vivitrol as part of a recovery maintenance program can benefit in the following ways and successfully overcome an addiction to opioids: * Medications used in medication assisted treatment are safe and pose no harm to one's body when taken as directed. * Methadone, Subutex, Suboxone, and Vivitrol are legal prescription medications. * Medication assisted treatment reduces the risks associated with injection drug use. * Cravings for continued drug use are significantly lessened, thus reducing the risk for relapse. * Withdrawal symptoms caused by opioids are alleviated, allowing an individual to resume a productive life.
