Medication-Assisted Treatment in Manchester, NH

The Path to a Better Life Starts in Manchester

The widespread effects of the opioid epidemic have a large number of Americans in need of comprehensive, compassionate, and urgent addiction treatment. At Better Life Partners, we understand that when people are ready for treatment, they need treatment immediately. Not tomorrow. Not next week. That’s why we deliver same-day medication-assisted treatment with Suboxone in New Hampshire.

New England has seen the tragic effects of the opioid epidemic first-hand. In New Hampshire in 2020, we saw 344 people lose their lives to drug overdose. Most of these cases involved the synthetic opioid fentanyl. When it comes to preventable drug overdose, the loss of one member of the Manchester community is too many.

It’s clear that New Hampshire needs help addressing this opioid crisis. People living with opioid use disorder (OUD) need hope, love, and care. We know this, which is why we meet people where they are, both figuratively and literally.

Everyone deserves access to flexible and affordable treatment that works. If you’re ready to walk the road to recovery, we are ready to walk with you every step of the way.

Here’s How We Can Help

Treatment that uses medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) is proven to be more effective. This is also known as Medication-Assisted Therapy or MAT. At Better Life Partners, we offer medications like buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) to help those in recovery avoid withdrawal symptoms and relapse. Visit one of our Suboxone clinics to learn more.

According to Harvard Medical School, ”Suboxone, a combination medication containing buprenorphine and naloxone, is one of the main medications used to treat opioid addiction.” By binding to the same receptors in the brain as opioids like heroin and pain relievers, it can eliminate cravings, enhance recovery, and reduce the likelihood of relapse. In fact, treatment using MOUD has been shown to lower the risk of fatal overdoses by about 50%.

Better Life Partners’ medication-assisted treatment (MAT) includes MOUD, group therapy with a licensed professional, and 1:1 meetings with a medical provider. By combining the power of medication with a supportive community, people often find they are more successful in their recovery from opioid use disorder.

Are You Battling Opioid Addiction?

*If someone is showing signs of an opioid overdose, call 911 immediately. Overdose symptoms, according to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, include vomiting, slow breathing or heartbeat, fingernails or lips turning a shade of blue or purple, and paleness.

The first step on your journey to recovery is the realization that you may need help addressing an opioid use disorder. Opioids include pain relievers like oxycodone (OxyContin) and hydrocodone (Vicodin or Zohydro ER), fentanyl, and heroin.

Signs of an opioid addiction may include:

• Making mistakes at work or school due to the use of opioids
• Wanting to stop using opioids but being unable to
• Relationships with family and friends suffering due to opioid use
• Needing to consume more of the substance to feel the effects
• Strong cravings
• Overdose
