      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      What is the purpose of drugs such as methadone, suboxone and subutex in the recovery process?

      Methadone, Suboxone (a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone), and Subutex (buprenorphine) are medications used in Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorders. Their primary purpose in the recovery process is to help manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings, facilitating a safer, more comfortable transition to abstinence or long-term management of the disorder. Here's a more detailed look at how each of these medications function:

      Methadone: Methadone is a long-acting opioid agonist, which means it activates the same receptors in the brain that other opioids like heroin, morphine, or prescription painkillers do. However, it does so more slowly and for a longer duration, without causing the intense euphoria associated with misuse of those drugs. This helps to mitigate withdrawal symptoms and cravings, enabling individuals to function more normally in daily life.

      Suboxone: Suboxone contains two active ingredients: buprenorphine and naloxone. Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist, meaning it activates the opioid receptors in the brain, but to a lesser extent than full agonists like heroin or methadone. This can help manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms without producing the high associated with opioid misuse. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist, meaning it blocks the effects of opioids. It's included in Suboxone to discourage misuse of the medication; if someone tries to inject Suboxone, the naloxone will trigger withdrawal symptoms.

      Subutex: Subutex is the brand name for buprenorphine alone. Like in Suboxone, buprenorphine in Subutex serves to lessen withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings. It is typically used in the initial stages of treatment, while Suboxone is more commonly used for maintenance.

      These medications are typically used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that also includes counseling and behavioral therapies. It's important to note that while these medications can be highly effective in supporting recovery, they should be used under the guidance of a healthcare provider due to the risk of misuse and potential side effects. Each individual's treatment plan should be tailored to their unique needs and circumstances to ensure the best possible outcomes.


      What happens in an intervention for someone with an addiction to drugs?

      An intervention for someone with a drug addiction is a structured and planned event designed to encourage the individual to acknowledge their addiction and seek professional help. The primary goal is to guide the person towards accepting treatment and taking the necessary steps towards recovery. Here is an outline of what typically happens during an intervention:

      • Planning: Before the intervention, loved ones and concerned parties (such as family members and friends) gather to discuss the situation and develop a plan. They may enlist the help of a professional interventionist, who can provide guidance on the intervention process and help maintain focus on the desired outcome.
      • Preparation: Participants gather information about the person's addiction, the impact it has had on their lives, and the available treatment options. They also prepare personal statements expressing their concern, love, and support, while addressing the negative consequences of the individual's drug use.
      • Rehearsal: The group rehearses the intervention to ensure that everyone is prepared, confident, and aware of their roles. This step helps participants maintain a calm and non-confrontational tone during the actual intervention.
      • The intervention meeting: The person with the addiction is invited to a pre-arranged location, often under the pretense of a different event. The group then confronts the individual with their prepared statements, detailing the impact of the addiction on their lives and urging the person to seek help.
      • Presentation of treatment options: The group presents the person with a pre-selected treatment plan or multiple options, emphasizing the importance of immediate action. It's crucial to have arrangements in place, such as pre-admission to a treatment facility or an appointment with a counselor, to facilitate a smooth transition into treatment.
      • Setting boundaries and consequences: During the intervention, participants establish clear boundaries and consequences if the person refuses to accept help. These consequences may include ceasing financial support, limiting contact, or other actions to protect themselves from the negative effects of the addiction.
      • Support and encouragement: Throughout the intervention, participants express their love and support for the individual, emphasizing their belief in the person's ability to recover and rebuild their life.
      • Post-intervention follow-up: If the person agrees to seek treatment, the group continues to provide support during their recovery process. If the person refuses help, the group must follow through with the established consequences to reinforce the seriousness of the situation.

      How can I help a loved one with their addiction to drugs?

      Helping a loved one who's struggling with drug addiction can be a complex task that requires compassion, patience, and understanding. Here are several steps you can take:

      1. Educate Yourself: Learn about addiction and the specific substance(s) your loved one is using. Understanding the nature of addiction, its effects on the brain and behavior, and the process of recovery can make you a more effective source of support.
      2. Communicate: Open a dialogue with your loved one about their addiction. Make sure to approach them with empathy, expressing your concerns without judgment or blame. Use "I" statements to convey how their behavior is affecting you and others.
      3. Encourage Treatment: Encourage your loved one to seek professional help. This could involve a variety of treatments, such as detoxification, therapy (individual or group), medications, or residential treatment programs. Each person's pathway to recovery will be unique, so it's important to explore different options to find what may work best for them.
      4. Support, Don't Enable: There's a fine line between supporting a loved one and enabling their drug use. It's important to assist them in their recovery process, but refrain from protecting them from the negative consequences of their addiction. This might involve setting boundaries for their behavior.
      5. Take Care of Yourself: Supporting a loved one through addiction can be emotionally challenging. Be sure to take care of your own physical and mental health as well. Seek support from others, such as friends, family, or support groups like Al-Anon or Nar-Anon, which are specifically designed for those affected by a loved one's substance use.
      6. Stay Patient: Recovery is a long-term process that often involves setbacks. Patience, perseverance, and hope are key during this journey. Celebrate small victories and remember that progress may be slow, but it is still progress.
      7. Involve Professionals: If your loved one is resistant to seeking help, consider a professionally facilitated intervention. An interventionist can guide you and your family through the process of conveying your concerns and the need for treatment in a structured setting.
