What could my treatment for Opiates look like?

Everyone's recovery journey is unique, and understanding your treatment options is essential.

Your treatment may include Opioid Substitution Therapy (OST) to ease withdrawal symptoms and support your recovery.

When you first contact us, we'll discuss your drug use and goals to determine the best treatment for you.

Support may involve psychosocial therapy, one-on-one sessions with a key worker, group sessions, and personalized assistance. 

If you need help with opiate use and are new to WithYou, please call 0333 2000 325 or visit our offices.

Have you considered Buvidal?

When you start your treatment with us, you might want to consider Buvidal as an alternative to methadone. 

One of the biggest perks of Buvidal is its convenient dosing schedule. While methadone usually requires daily doses, Buvidal can be given weekly or even monthly, which could give you more flexibility in your daily life.

Plus, with Buvidal, there's a lower risk of misuse, which makes it a safer choice for everyone involved. So, if you’re looking for a treatment option that fits more easily into your life and offers extra peace of mind, Buvidal is worth considering!
