What is MAT?

Medication-assisted treatment describes a “whole patient” course of treatment that combines the strategic use of medication, counseling, and behavioral therapies like CBT. The FDA-approved medications are designed to detox the patient and reduce physical dependence on substances like alcohol or opioids.
