Medication-Assisted Treatment [MAT] Clinic | Quincy
Overview
Opioid addiction is a chronic disease, like heart disease or diabetes. A chronic disease is a medical condition for life. It cannot be cured, but it can be managed. With treatment a person with addiction can regain a healthy and productive life. Treatment can help to overcome the addiction, get through withdrawal and cope with cravings. At SIU Center for Family Medicine Quincy, we offer MAT along with counseling and other support, to help patients manage addiction so that the benefits of recovery can be maintained. Buprenorphine (Suboxone®) is a medication commonly used to treat opioid addiction. Buprenorphine or Naltrexone may be prescribed if one of those medications are a right choice for you.
