Question By: A variety of effective treatments are available for heroin use disorder, including both behavioral and pharmacological. Although behavioral and pharmacologic treatments can be extremely useful when utilized alone, research shows that for many people, integrating both types of treatments is the most effective approach.
Methadone and buprenorphine have been proven to save lives, reduce the risk of lethal relapse, improve quality of life and decrease crime, more so than any other treatment option. Psychosocial treatments can be a promising approach for treating heroin dependence, relapse can still be a common occurrence and many find that combining treatment with MAT is most effective.
