Medications prescribed are drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid dependent clients. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab centers in Georgetown are programs who are officially allowed to give out the drugs used in MAT being they remain certified and continue to meet certain requirements.
