The Addiction Medicine Clinic
The Center for Alcohol and Drug Treatment, one of Minnesota's most respected non-profit treatment centers, believes everyone deserves the chance for greater success in recovering from addiction. For this reason the Addiction Medicine Clinic was developed. Now, people in need of help can get immediate access to a combination of addiction treatment, medication for Opioid Use Disorders, mental health service, & help finding insurance, housing, work, and more.
What is the Addiction Medicine Clinic?
As a one-stop shop for people in need of support for recovery from addiction, there’s nothing else like this in the region. Now, a person dealing with substance use disorder (SUD) or opioid use disorder (OUD) can get life-saving medication, talk with doctors and mental health therapists, and find nonmedical resources at the same time.
What is Detox & Withdrawal Management?
Often when addressing substance abuse or addiction, the first problem is dealing with the likelihood of withdrawal. The Detox & Withdrawal Management is a 40 bed unit specializing in acute care of withdrawal related symptoms. Detox & Withdrawal Management has highly trained medical and clinical staff providing 24hr care.
You can find more information here: Detox & Withdrawal Management.
What are Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD)?
Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) are medications that are used in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies to provide a whole-patient approach to the treatment of substance use disorders. Research shows that medications such as Methadone, Suboxone, and Naltrexone combined with behavioral therapies produce successful outcomes. This combination is a clinically driven, evidence-based approach with a focus on individualized patient care.
The Addiction Medicine Clinic has two programs that offer MOUD Treatment. Clearpath Clinic and OBOT.
Clearpath Clinic is an Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) that provides medically assisted treatment and recovery programs for anyone using heroin, fentanyl, and other opiates. Treatment includes the use of Methadone or Suboxone along with behavioral therapies. You can learn more Clearpath Clinic by clicking here: Clearpath Clinic.
For Pregnant Women
We specialize in helping pregnant women address opioid, alcohol, and other Substance Use Disorders. According the Centers for Disease Control, current clinical recommendations for pregnant women with Opioid Use Disorder include Medications for Opioid Use Disorders, rather than supervised withdrawal, due to a higher likelihood of better outcomes and a reduced risk of relapse. All programs at the Center prioritize immediate access for pregnant patients.
