Suboxone, managed with care.
Suboxone can be a key part of your recovery from opioid use disorder — whether this is your first step or you're starting over after a relapse. Our approach combines Suboxone with a full range of care, including detox, therapy, and ongoing support.
Buprenorphine and naloxone, working together.
Suboxone contains two key ingredients: buprenorphine, which helps ease cravings and withdrawal symptoms, and naloxone, which blocks the effects of opioids. Together, they help manage opioid use disorder without producing the intense high opioids typically cause. Suboxone does contain an opioid — buprenorphine — but using it as part of MAT is not replacing one addiction with another. It's a therapeutic medication used to manage addiction, sometimes long-term, so you can focus on building coping skills without being consumed by cravings or withdrawal.
Signs it may be time to reach out.
Opioid use disorder is a chronic condition marked by a powerful craving to keep using, even when it causes problems. It can affect anyone. Common signs include:
- Strong cravings for the drug, even when not prescribed or needed.
- Changes in behavior, like withdrawing from loved ones or losing interest in activities.
- Physical symptoms, such as drowsiness, weight loss, or nausea.
- Frequent doctor visits or seeking prescriptions from multiple sources.
- Difficulty stopping, even after trying to quit.
If you or someone you know is experiencing these signs, remember that you're not alone, and support is available.
What Suboxone treatment can offer.
Medication is one part of a bigger plan.
Most people begin with a medically supervised detox before starting Suboxone, with 24/7 care to help manage withdrawal symptoms. Suboxone is introduced under medical guidance, and medication is combined with therapy approaches including:
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)
Helps you identify and reframe the thought patterns that fuel cravings and relapse.
Motivational interviewing
A respectful, non-judgmental approach that helps you explore your own reasons for change.
Trauma therapy
Addresses the experiences that often sit underneath substance use.
Group therapy
Peer support and accountability alongside individual care.
Counseling, community, and aftercare.
Addiction counseling helps you work through deeper issues, learn healthy ways to cope, and prepare for life after treatment. We provide individual and group therapy during residential care, and we'll help you set up ongoing counseling and community support — including recovery groups like Narcotics Anonymous — before your program ends. Suboxone is entered into Ohio's prescription drug monitoring program, which helps keep you safe by flagging interactions with other medications.
Harm reduction and telemedicine, in the bigger picture.
Harm reduction, in the bigger picture
Harm reduction is an approach that meets people with compassion wherever they are in their recovery journey — including before they're ready to stop using entirely. Ohio offers harm-reduction resources statewide, such as overdose-reversal medication and fentanyl test kits, through community organizations and public health programs. Suboxone fits within this approach too: by easing cravings and withdrawal, it can lower the risk of relapse and overdose while someone works toward lasting recovery.
Telemedicine and treatment access
Virtual care has become an increasingly common way for people to continue Suboxone treatment under medical monitoring, particularly for those in rural areas or without reliable transportation to in-person appointments — one of several ways opioid use disorder treatment continues to evolve to meet people where they are.
