Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT): the basics

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) uses FDA-approved medications, usually alongside counseling, to treat opioid and alcohol use disorders. For opioids, the options are buprenorphine (including Suboxone), methadone and naltrexone. These medications ease cravings and withdrawal, help prevent a return to use and lower overdose risk.
