Request a CallbackIs Your Drinking Becoming a Problem?
It may be time to talk to someone if you notice:
- Drinking more, or for longer, than you meant to
- Trying to cut down and not being able to
- Needing more to feel the same effect
- Missing work or family responsibilities because of drinking
- Drinking to cope with stress, anxiety or sadness
- People close to you are worried
If you have shaking, sweating or confusion when you stop drinking, talk to a doctor: alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous and may need medical care first.

Medication-assisted treatment
Medication-Assisted Treatment for Alcohol Use
Vivitrol and naltrexone are examples of MAT for alcohol use. After your evaluation you will be scheduled with one of the staff from our medical team, and they will talk with you about whether medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is right for you.
Vivitrol
Vivitrol (a monthly naltrexone injection) is used to treat alcohol use disorder. It is also used for opioid use disorder.
Naltrexone
Naltrexone (a daily tablet) is used to treat alcohol use disorder. It is also used for opioid use disorder.
- 01
A medical assessment
Individuals undergo a thorough assessment by our medical team, which helps the physician determine the appropriate course and level of MAT, including the best medications for an individual’s particular needs.
- 02
Medication and therapy together
MAT combines pharmacological treatment (medications) with behavioral treatment (evidence-based therapies) that is tailored to a patient’s unique needs. Many people have been helped in recovery through this whole-patient approach.
- 03
Support for recovery
MAT is a multifaceted approach to treating substance use disorders that has been shown to significantly reduce cravings, mitigate the rewarding effects of certain drugs, and lead to a decrease in both alcohol consumption and the continued use of other substances. Its primary objective is comprehensive recovery.
