Detox can be one of the most uncomfortable and overwhelming stages of recovery — but you don’t have to go through it alone. Safe Haven Recovery provides targeted, short-term Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) to reduce withdrawal symptoms, stabilize your system, and ensure a safe transition into treatment.

Why We Use MAT During Detox
Detoxing without medical support can be dangerous, overwhelming, and discouraging. MAT helps clients begin recovery with:
Reduced withdrawal symptoms
Lower cravings and urges to use
More stable emotions and clearer thinking
Better sleep and physical comfort
Reduced risk of complications
Improved engagement in the early stages of treatment
A safer, smoother transition into residential care
MAT is always individualized — we only prescribe it when our medical team determines it is truly necessary for your safety and stabilization.
How MAT Fits Into Your Recovery Process
Medication-assisted detox is the first step of a comprehensive treatment plan. Once withdrawal stabilizes, clients smoothly transition into our Residential Treatment Program, where therapy, holistic care, wellness services, and recovery planning become the focus.
MAT is:
Short-term
Administered only during detox
Used to support physical stabilization
Discontinued once withdrawal symptoms improve
From there, therapy and long-term support guide you toward lasting recovery.
Medications We Use in Our MAT Program
MAT Using Buprenorphine (Suboxone / Subutex)
Buprenorphine is an opioid that is used to support opioid addiction therapy. It helps our patients who are in active addiction to avoid difficult detoxing. Dosage is carefully controlled and gradually reduced over time, to allow patients a gradual weaning process rather than an abrupt “cold turkey” experience.
Many patients find that using Buprenorphine to medically support their addiction therapy helps them to achieve success, even when past attempts might have failed.
Used only when clinically indicated for opioid withdrawal.
Benefits of Buprenorphine Include:
Reduced cravings
Less physical discomfort
Lower risk of severe symptoms
Supportive emotional stabilization
Improved readiness for therapy
Buprenorphine is carefully tapered as your body stabilizes.
MAT Using Naltrexone
Naltrexone is a drug that is used to help people who have stopped abusing substances to stay substance-free.
Research has long shown that the first few weeks and months of substance abuse treatment can be the hardest, and that old habits are easy to slip back into. Naltrexone works by simultaneously reducing cravings, and when patients do indulge, in reducing the effects of their substance of choice.
This two pronged approach not only reduces the desire to abuse substances, but also the motivation to do so.
Used for alcohol or opioid withdrawal when appropriate, to help reduce cravings and stabilize mood.
Benefits of Naltrexone Include:
Lower cravings
Improved clarity and focus
Non-addictive
Helps bridge detox into therapy
Naltrexone is introduced only when medically safe and discontinued before transitioning to residential treatment.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) FAQs
What is Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)?
Medication-Assisted Treatment is a short-term medical approach using FDA-approved medications to reduce withdrawal symptoms, stabilize the body, and help clients begin recovery safely. At Safe Haven Recovery, MAT is used only during detox and early withdrawal, and always under the supervision of licensed medical providers.
What medications does Safe Haven Recovery use for MAT?
We only use two evidence-based medications:
Buprenorphine (for opioid withdrawal)
Naltrexone (for alcohol or opioid stabilization)
No other MAT medications are offered, and these are used only when clinically necessary or prescribed by another addiction treatment center.
Does Safe Haven Recovery offer Suboxone or buprenorphine maintenance programs?
No. We do not offer long-term or maintenance MAT programs. Buprenorphine is used short-term only, during detox and early stabilization, and is safely tapered as symptoms improve.
How long will I be on MAT during detox?
Most clients use MAT for several days to a few weeks, depending on their symptoms, medical history, and the intensity of withdrawal. Your medical team determines the exact duration based on your safety and comfort.
Is MAT required for everyone who detoxes?
No. MAT is never automatic. It is recommended only after a medical assessment determines that medication support is necessary for your safety or comfort.
Can I detox without medication?
Yes. Many clients complete detox without MAT. Our medical team will discuss your options and determine whether medication is clinically appropriate.
Is MAT safe?
Yes. MAT is considered safe when administered by licensed medical professionals. At Safe Haven Recovery, clients receive 24/7 monitoring, vital sign checks, and medication adjustments to ensure safe stabilization during withdrawal.
How does MAT help with withdrawal symptoms?
MAT helps by:
Reducing cravings
Minimizing discomfort
Stabilizing emotions
Supporting sleep and rest
Reducing relapse risk during detox
Improving engagement in early treatment
This makes withdrawal safer and more manageable.
Will I become dependent on MAT medications?
No. Because MAT is used short-term only and carefully tapered, the risk of dependence is extremely low. Medications are discontinued as soon as your body stabilizes.
What happens after I complete MAT?
After detox, clients transition into Residential Treatment, where therapy, holistic healing, relapse-prevention planning, and emotional support become the focus. MAT is discontinued before entering residential care.
Does MAT replace therapy?
No. MAT is never a standalone treatment. It is paired with therapy, emotional support, and clinical guidance to prepare clients for long-term recovery.
Do you offer MAT for alcohol withdrawal?
Yes. Naltrexone is used during alcohol detox to reduce cravings and support emotional stability, only when medically necessary.
How do I know if MAT is right for me?
A comprehensive medical assessment determines whether MAT is recommended. Factors include your withdrawal risk, substance use history, past detox experiences, and any co-occurring mental health symptoms.
Is MAT covered by insurance?
Most PPO insurance plans cover MAT for detox. We can verify your insurance benefits in minutes, confidentially and with no obligation.
Call us at (855) 893-3566 for benefits verification or to answer any questions you may have about our program.
How quickly can I start MAT or detox?
We offer same-day admissions when medically appropriate. Our team can arrange immediate evaluation, detox placement, and medication support if needed.
What if I’ve tried detox before and experienced severe withdrawal?
MAT is especially helpful for individuals who have struggled with intense or complicated withdrawal in the past. Our medical team will review your history and design a safer, more comfortable withdrawal plan tailored to your needs.
Is MAT available during outpatient treatment?
No. MAT at Safe Haven Recovery is available only during detox and early stabilization, not during outpatient treatment.
What if MAT doesn’t work for me?
Our medical team continuously monitors your response and can adjust medication, modify your detox plan, or provide additional therapeutic support as needed.
Can MAT prevent relapse?
MAT reduces cravings and withdrawal discomfort during detox, which lowers the risk of leaving treatment early. This support helps clients remain engaged long enough to begin therapy and long-term recovery work.
How do I start MAT-supported detox at Safe Haven Recovery?
A confidential phone call or insurance verification is the first step. Our admissions team will gather your information, answer your questions, and schedule an assessment to determine the safest detox plan.
