At Sheboygan Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC), we offer personalized outpatient care for adults age 18 and older who have been struggling with opioid addictions. We provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT), a comprehensive approach to opioid addiction treatment that uses prescription medication and counseling to help people withdraw from opioids and begin working toward long-term recovery. Earlier methadone clinics typically offered one type of medication for patients. However, patients at our CTC can receive a prescription for methadone, buprenorphine, naltrexone, or Suboxone as part of their treatment plan. These medications can help ease the physical challenges of opioid withdrawal and allow patients to focus on the broader aspects of addiction recovery. MAT can effectively reduce a person’s risk for relapse as well as help them improve social functioning, stay in treatment, and maintain employment. It also provides the opportunity to build effective skills and strategies that can help a person remain in recovery.
