At Via Clinic we are experienced in managing co-occuring substance use and psychiatric disorders. We have expertise in prescribing medications intended specifically for the treatment of opioid addiction, including naltrexone (Revia, Vivitrol) and buprenorphine (Subutex, Suboxone). In select cases we may provide outpatient detoxification.
*Please note that we do not offer buprenorphine maintenance therapy.
About Opioids in Our Community
Opioids are drugs chemically related to Opiates. Opiates, such as morphine, are compounds found naturally in the opium poppy plant. Opioids include heroin and painkillers like oxycodone and hydrocodone. Opioids are addictive, reinforcing drugs that can produce a physical dependency. Depression, anxiety, and demoralization can both contribute to, as well as result from, opioid addiction.
Baltimore is known for having one of the most severe drug abuse problems in Maryland and in the nation. If you or a loved one is suffering from opioid addiction, you are not alone. In Baltimore, government organizations estimate that as many as one in ten people are addicted to heroin. Through treatment, education, and community involvement we can fight opioid addiction in Baltimore.
