Heroin Addiction Treatment
Heroin addiction treatment is a set of evidence-based practices that aim to reduce the physical, psychological and social harms associated with the use of heroin and other opioid drugs. Treatment of heroin addiction typically involves counseling, use of medications such as methadone and buprenorphine, and participation in mutual-support groups, such as Narcotics Anonymous. Heroin addiction treatment can help people stop using heroin and prevent relapse, as well as improve overall health, reduce criminal behavior and stigma, and address underlying mental health issues.
