Guidance and Hope for Opioid Use

  • FDA-approved formulations of buprenorphine are utilized to help manage symptoms of opioid withdrawal and reduce cravings. Expertise in assessing individual needs and prescribing the appropriate dosage allows for careful, personalized plans for both titrating and tapering buprenorphine based on the recovery process. The process of tapering is particularly delicate and handled with care and expertise.

  • The impact of opioid use on various health aspects, including chronic pain and hormonal changes, is well established. Therefore a multi-faceted approach is employed to manage these comorbidities, incorporating non-opioid analgesics and psychotherapy for pain management, along with prescription medications, lifestyle changes, and supplements to restore hormonal balance.

  • Mental health is a crucial aspect of recovery, and comprehensive treatment is provided for psychiatric conditions that often accompany opioid use disorder. Expertise in managing conditions such as anxiety, depression, and insomnia ensures personalized, compassionate care, with therapy and additional medication as needed to support overall mental well-being.
