Southern Indiana Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC), located in Charlestown, Indiana, offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for adults age 18 and older of all genders who are struggling with opioid addictions. There is significant evidence to support the use of MAT to help adults who have opioid use disorder limit their cravings, avoid painful withdrawal symptoms, and find lasting recovery. While medications like methadone help ease the process of withdrawal, medication alone is not enough to address the complex physical and psychological elements of opioid addiction. MAT works by combining medications with therapy to provide a comprehensive treatment for opioid addiction. Many people may desire to find freedom from opioid addictions, but the pain of withdrawal, coupled with distressing cravings, makes the recovery process difficult. Medication-assisted treatment helps people find recovery from opioid addictions by providing guidance and support on their journeys toward healing.
