Medication for Opioid Use Disorder is the use of medications, in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies, to provide a “whole-patient” approach to the treatment of substance use disorders. Medications used for opioid use disorder are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and MOUD programs are clinically driven and tailored to meet each patient’s needs.

Research shows that a combination of medication and therapy can successfully treat these disorders, and for some people struggling with addiction, MOUD can help sustain recovery. MOUD is also used to prevent or reduce opioid overdose.
