Treatment Options

Today, a variety of comprehensive treatment options are available for people struggling with heroin addiction. These include intensive inpatient (residential) programs and outpatient services; a pharmacological component may or may not be a part of each option. Many experts now believe that combining behavioral therapy with anti-addiction medications presents the best chance for successful recovery from heroin abuse and addiction. Identifying the abuse early also increases the effectiveness of treatment. Although heroin is considered one of the most addictive drugs, effective, evidence-based treatment is available—people can and do recover from heroin addiction every day. Yet it’s important to recognize that substance use disorders are chronic conditions, and relapses are common.
