Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Do you have a problem with substance use? Is it effecting your relationships or even your job? Sometimes these problems won’t go away on their own but our staff at Columbia Wellness can help.
Medication-Assisted Treatment or MAT is an FDA approved treatment method for opioid and alcohol dependence. It combines medication with behavioral therapies for a “whole patient” approach to treat substance use addiction. MAT medications relieve the withdrawal symptoms and psychological cravings that cause chemical imbalances in the body.
Naloxone (NARCAN ®) nasal spray is available for qualifying individuals to take home without a presription to help reduce the risk of death during opioid overdose. Call us at (360) 353-9870 to find out more information.
At Columbia Wellness, our specialized and highly regarded MAT programs are part of our commitment to evidence-based drug treatment practices to help you and your loved ones see the best results and the fullest recovery.
