Optional medication for alcoholism (AUD) in Sturbridge, MA

If you think you may be interested in using medication to aid in your recovery journey from alcohol use disorder (AUD), Better Life Partners can make it happen. Medication is one of the many optional resources we can provide to our members, and it is never required to get care with us. If you’d like to learn more or are ready to get started, give us a call at (866) 679-0831.

We’re able to offer three different medications for alcohol use disorder (AUD). They are all effective and safe but have slight differences. Acamprosate helps to lessen cravings and urges to drink and is recommended for people who would like to quit drinking completely. Disulfiram, like Acamprosate, is best for individuals who wish to fully abstain from alcohol. It works by reducing cravings as well as making you feel unwell when combined with alcohol. Our last medication, Naltrexone, is best suited for our members looking to cut back on their drinking. It helps to decrease cravings and reduce the pleasant effects you feel from consuming alcohol.

 

If you choose medication to be a part of your journey, you’ll work closely with a clinician to make sure it’s working the way you had hoped. And whether this is your chosen path or not, you’ll have full access to all our other care options and professional team. We’re here to help turn your dreams into reality. 

If you think medication might be a good option for you, just give us a call or text at (866) 679-0831 to discuss your options!

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Better Life Partners located in Sturbridge, Massachusetts?

We partner with community organizations so that we can provide our medication-assisted treatment services wherever they’re needed in Massachusetts. With fantastic partners and virtual options, no matter where you are in the state, you can receive our alcohol treatment services.

How is Better Life Partners’ alcohol treatment program different from AA?

Our program takes the best parts of AA and builds upon them. We offer group sessions, like AA, but they are led by licensed professionals and are focused on your unique needs. You can also receive our treatment online. While our sessions aren’t geared toward a one-faith practice, we support members of all faiths and encourage each person to share what’s important to them.

Why do you use Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) and alcoholism interchangeably?

First and foremost, we use the word alcoholism on our website to make sure folks looking online for treatment find us as an option! That said, we know there are several people out there who don’t relate to that word, so we use it alongside AUD and aim to use alcohol use disorder in place of alcoholism when possible.  

We use alcohol use disorder instead of alcoholism because AUD includes varying degrees of alcohol use and is a diagnostic medical term, whereas “alcoholism” is a colloquial term that is often interpreted negatively or as referring to someone with a severe alcohol use problem. So, we use AUD to be inclusive and non-judgmental!

Do I need to take medication to be in your program?

Absolutely not! We never ask our members to do anything they are not comfortable with. Many of our members opt out of medications and others elect to use them. Your recovery is up to you! We’re here to provide you with options so you can choose the treatment style that works best for you.

I’m interested in medications, how quickly can I start on Naltrexone/Acamprosate/Disulfiram for Alcoholism?

We offer same-day treatment with or without medications for alcoholism/AUD. Call/text to get started: (866) 679-0831.

What is expected of me during treatment?

First, you will meet with a medical professional to get started. After that, members take part in supportive counseling sessions. Depending on where you’re at in your recovery, this may look like weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly group therapy. Overall, what your treatment looks like is up to you–we’re just here to give you whatever support you need in the process.

Do you accept insurance?

Yes. We accept Medicaid, Medicare, BCBS, MassHealth, most insurances, and offer a sliding fee scale as needed.

What’s it like to be a Better Life Partners member?

We may be biased, but we think it’s pretty great! We operate with a non-punitive harm reduction philosophy, which means that we offer compassion and flexibility to help you achieve your goals. We believe in creating options and a sense of belonging during recovery, instead of focusing on consequences. Plus, we integrate with other community organizations to make sure you can get our care no matter where you are.
