Safe treatment options for heroin or opioid addictions include medications that reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms, such as nausea and vomiting.2 Methadone and buprenorphine are essential medicines for the treatment of opioid use disorder; they help restore balance to brain circuits impaired by heroin and painkiller abuse.2 Many rehab centers combine these medications with behavioral counseling for a whole-patient approach known as medication-assisted treatment (MAT), which helps you overcome opioid addiction both physically and mentally.2Â

Some states are unable to provide MAT to all patients who suffer from opioid use disorder.2 However, many drug rehab centers in the Sayreville area offer MAT along with medical detox treatments and behavioral therapies aimed at treating addiction as a whole.

Don't go anywhere else! Wish I could have stayed longer
I have been to numerous treatment centers, but none have been as effective as Victory Bay. From the very beginning of my stay, they were nothing but supportive. The staff kept close to me and kept me on the right track to the best of their ability. I was made to feel comfortable enough to stay; however, I was also pushed to better myself and work towards the person I had forgotten I could be. The focus on not just my drug use issues, but my family and emotional issues as well, was tremendously helpful. They go hand in hand which was hard for me to see before and had always stunted me in my recovery. I certainly fought every step of the way and it was not easy, but Victory Bay did not give up on me. They played a crucial role in kick-starting my recovery, and I absolutely would not be where I am today had I not attended their treatment facility.
