Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD)

Outlines different medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD). Options include methadone, which fully activates the opioid receptor to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms. This medication must be taken with medical supervision. Methadone is taken daily in a tablet, liquid, or wafer forms. Buprenorphine only partially activates the opioid receptor. Buprenorphine also reduces cravings and symptoms of withdrawal; it can be administered in an outpatient setting and can be taken daily in a tablet, film, implant, or orally. It can also be administered through a monthly injection. Naltrexone is a medication that blocks the opioid receptor, meaning folks don't feel the effects of the opioid. This medication can be administered monthly in the form of an injection, or daily in a tablet form.
