SAMHSA Opioid Treatment Program

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) provides specialized care for individuals with opioid use disorder. These programs offer medical treatment, including daily supervised medication like methadone or buprenorphine, to help manage cravings and prevent withdrawal. OTPs combine medication with counseling and support services to promote recovery and improve quality of life. They are regulated to ensure safety and effectiveness, aiming to reduce the risks associated with opioid addiction and support long-term recovery.
