Understanding Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)

On this week's podcast, Max, Brock, and Blu offer some insights into Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and how it can be used to help manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings in people who have been addicted to opioids. The guys have different opinions on the use and promotion of using MAT and this podcast will help you develop some personal insight as to why. MAT is one of many options for treating substance use disorders. No single option is appropriate for everyone. MAT is an adjunctive treatment or assistive therapy to the overall treatment of a person with a substance use disorder.
