Opioid Agonist Therapy (OAT) is a medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD). It is a safe and effective way to reduce opioid cravings and withdrawal symptoms. OAT can help people with OUD reduce or stop using opioids, and improve their physical, behavioral, and psychological health.
Clinics offer medication, counselling and connections to other healthcare services to assist clients with opioid use disorder.
