    Outpatient Opioid Addiction Treatment in Gloucester, MA

    Opioid addiction affects thousands of individuals across Massachusetts, leading to physical dependence and emotional challenges. At Middlesex Recovery Gloucester, we offer comprehensive, evidence-based treatment to help individuals reclaim their lives.

     

    FDA-Approved Medications for the treatment of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD):
    • Suboxone (Buprenorphine/Naloxone) – combination of buprenorphine with naloxone – an opioid antagonist taken in pill form that binds to opioid receptors without actually activating them.
    • Sublocade (Extended-Release Buprenorphine Injection) – injectable medication that delivers continuously at a sustained level throughout the month after injection. It attaches to the brain’s receptors and blocks other opioids from attaching and causing euphoric feelings.
    • Vivitrol (Naltrexone Injection) – opioid antagonist that is approved to treat patients who misuse opioid medications or alcohol. It comes in the form of injection and is designed to reduce and suppress cravings for alcohol and opiate drugs. It does this by attaching to the opioid receptors in the brain, thereby removing opiate drugs on the receptors and suppressing future cravings.
    • Brixadi (Extended-Release Buprenorphine Injection) – We offer an extended-release injectable form of buprenorphine, Brixadi. It is used to treat opioid use disorder and is similar to Sublocade with some differences. The injection can be given in weekly or monthly doses and is a smaller injection that can be injected through different sites on a person’s body. The injection can only be administered by a healthcare professional.

    Substance Use Counseling

    A highly recommended addition to your addiction treatment plan is that of joining substance use counseling. This counseling is referral-based and designed to help you identify underlying triggers and find healthy coping skills to live an overall healthier life. Individualized options for this include:

    • Individual counseling – One-on-one counseling sessions that will help you to better understand the emotional factors behind your addiction. This is in a private, confidential setting so you can work through past trauma, create healthy coping habits and goal-setting for your recovery.
    • Group counseling – A peer-supported environment where individuals in recovery can share experiences, gain encouragement, and build accountability.

    Comprehensive Case Management

    Our case managers work closely with patients to coordinate medical, legal, and social support services, ensuring a seamless recovery experience. We connect patients with:

    • Medical providers for continued treatment.
    • Legal and social services to address additional needs.
    • Sober companions and recovery coaches for peer support.

    Depending on your needs, we also provide telehealth options for counseling, medication-assisted treatment, and case management—allowing you to receive care from the comfort of your home. These services are offered through your treatment provider, and eligibility for telehealth may vary based on where you are in your recovery journey.”
