Our Services at This Location
Methadone Treatment
Methadone is an opioid agonist blocker and helps to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms when administered therapeutically by a medical professional. The dose is ingested, typically in liquid form, and is tapered off in accordance with cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
Suboxone Treatment
Suboxone is a combination of the opioid agonist blocker Buprenorphine, and the overdose medication Naloxone. The medication is dissolved under the tongue and is a very safe option due to its limited effect.
Sublocade Treatment
Buprenorphine is administered as an injection by a medical professional once a month. The medication releases slowly, benefiting patients who otherwise have difficulty accessing or taking daily medication.
Kadian Treatment
Kadian is a form of morphine that is taken orally with an extended release. It is a full opioid agonist blocker and is used for more severe opioid addictions.
Hepatitis C Screening + Treatment
Because Hep C is a common liver disease among people who inject drugs, we routinely screen our patients and provide additional support for patients who test positive.
Pharmacy Services
We operate a network of full-service pharmacies, many of which are co-located with our treatment clinics. These pharmacies ensure seamless access to treatment medication.
Safe Use Supplies
By providing safe equipment and educational resources to patients, drug-related infections and harm are greatly reduced, and connections to health and social services are increased.
Naloxone Kits
In the event of an opioid overdose, Naloxone can help someone survive long enough for emergency medical professionals to arrive. Pick up a free kit at our clinic today.Recovery is Possible
