Opioid Use Disorder Treatment (Suboxone Therapy)
Confidential, evidence-based treatment for opioid dependence in a supportive primary care setting.
If you or someone you love is struggling with opioid use, you are not alone, and you deserve real support.
Opioid use disorder is a medical condition, not a moral failure. At Mahler Family Medicine, we provide confidential, evidence-based treatment in a judgment-free setting.
Treatment with Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD)
Evidence supports first line agent of Suboxone
Suboxone is a long-acting, low-potency opioid.
It works by binding to the same receptors that other opioids do, but it helps to break the dependency that shorter-acting opiates create.
Since it binds to the opioid receptors, patients don’t have cravings or withdrawal. They don’t feel the need for anything else. Patients often report less “cloudiness or brain fog.” They feel “normal” and “balanced” again.
