About Cedar Rapids Treatment Center - CRC
Cedar Rapids Treatment Center - CRC located in Cedar Rapids, IA provides a State Funded rehab program. Detailed description details:
Cedar Rapids Treatment Center - CRC provides a Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) program for opioids.
Cedar Rapids Treatment Center - CRC uses a combination of medication, counseling, and behavioral therapy to treat opioid addiction.
Medications used in the MAT include: Buprenorphine; Unlike methadone treatment, which must be performed in a highly structured clinic, buprenorphine is the first medication to treat opioid dependency that is permitted to be prescribed or dispensed in physician offices, significantly increasing treatment access.
Methadone; Methadone works by changing how the brain and nervous system respond to pain. It lessens the painful symptoms of opiate withdrawal and blocks the euphoric effects of opiate drugs such as heroin, morphine, and codeine, as well as semi-synthetic opioids like oxycodone and hydrocodone.
Naltrexone; Naltrexone blocks the euphoric and sedative effects of drugs such as heroin, morphine, and codeine. It works differently in the body than buprenorphine and methadone, which activate opioid receptors in the body that suppress cravings. Naltrexone binds and blocks opioid receptors, and is reported to reduce opioid cravings. There is no abuse and diversion potential with naltrexone.

I am interested in getting started with a mat program. I have a very bad addiction with opioids. I can no longer deal with the withdrawal when I can't get what I need. I'm trying to do better but I really need some help and I'm ready to take that step forward. My sister is through a program in Waterloo and they're treating her with methodone. It seems to be helping her and she's finally clean. I would like to take that step and be better. I'm unable to function let alone.
