Medication-Assisted Detox

Medication-Assisted Detox (MAT) is a treatment approach that uses prescribed medications to help individuals safely withdraw from addictive substances, such as alcohol or opioids. The medications reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings, making the detox process more manageable and less uncomfortable. MAT is typically part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes counseling and support services. It aims to assist individuals in stabilizing their health and preparing for ongoing addiction treatment, ultimately improving their chances of long-term recovery.
