At MedMark Treatment Centers in Amherst, Ohio, we understand the difficulties of opioid addiction and are here to assist you.
Our opioid treatment programs (OTP) have been crafted with your individual needs in mind, providing the tools and resources to help you overcome your dependence on fentanyl, heroin, prescription drugs, or any other type of opioid.
We are your allies on this path to recovery, dedicated to providing the support and guidance necessary to lead a more satisfying life.
The State Opioid Response Grant is now available for residents of Amherst, OH. Those who meet the eligibility criteria can access medication-assisted treatment with methadone or buprenorphine at no cost.
Our team offers methadone as a medication-assisted treatment (MAT), to help ease your withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings, so that you can focus on the other aspects of your life that will help you succeed in your recovery.
Methadone works by preventing withdrawal symptoms and cravings while also blocking the effects of other opioids. The drug binds to the same opioid receptors in the brain as other opioids but does not produce the same “high” or euphoria that other opioids do.
Patients taking methadone also have improved mental clarity and improved physical and mental health.
At MedMark Treatment Centers in Amherst, we offer buprenorphine as part of our MAT program. This medication helps people who are suffering from opioid addiction to manage the physical side effects so they can focus on the mental and emotional aspects of their recovery.
We believe in a holistic approach, which means that we believe in combining buprenorphine and methadone with counseling and support services. This will help people to stay on the path to recovery and to live more meaningful lives.
At MedMark Treatment Centers in Amherst, we provide individual counseling sessions to help you understand addiction and the issues that can lead to it.

Additionally, our counselors will help you process any past traumatic experiences, rebuild relationships, and set goals for the future that are tailored to your recovery needs.
Our MedMark Amherst counselors offer a safe and non-judgmental space for you to share your journey in recovery with others who have experienced similar struggles.
