MAT provides a “whole-patient” approach to treat addiction to opioids such as heroin or prescription pain relievers. MAT is not a standalone treatment. It combines medications with behavioral therapy, psychosocial supports, and other wraparound services, leading to the best outcomes. MAT helps treat opioid use disorder (OUD) by helping normalize brain chemistry, blocking the euphoric effects of opioids, and relieving physical cravings, without the negative effects of heroin.
