Buprenorphine without naloxone

A medication used to treat opioid addiction by alleviating the withdrawal symptoms, which can be administered orally, through injection, as a transdermal patch, or in the form of an implant.

Medications for HIV treatment

Refer to the use of antiretroviral therapy (ART) medications to manage and treat HIV infection in individuals who are also receiving treatment for substance use disorders. HIV treatment pharmacotherapies can be a critical component of drug treatment programs for individuals who are living with HIV and substance use disorders. These medications can help to reduce the viral load in the body and prevent the progression of HIV to AIDS, improving overall health outcomes and quality of life for individuals with HIV.

Medications for Hepatitis C treatment

Refer to the use of antiviral medications to manage and treat Hepatitis C infection in individuals who are also receiving treatment for substance use disorders. Hepatitis C treatment pharmacotherapies can be a critical component of Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania's drug treatment programs for individuals who are living with both substance use disorders and Hepatitis C. These medications can help to clear the virus from the body, reduce the risk of liver damage, and improve overall health outcomes and quality of life.

Clonidine

A medication that is primarily used in the treatment of high blood pressure. However, it is also used off-label to manage withdrawal symptoms associated with opioid use disorder. Clonidine is not a controlled substance, unlike other medications used for withdrawal management, such as methadone or buprenorphine. This can be an advantage in some settings like Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, as it can be prescribed more easily and may be less stigmatizing for individuals seeking treatment.

Medication for mental disorders

Refers to the use of medications to manage and treat various mental health conditions, such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. These medications can help to alleviate symptoms, improve quality of life, and increase overall functioning in individuals with mental health conditions.

Nicotine replacement

A form of treatment that delivers nicotine to the body through alternative means, excluding tobacco, and without the presence of harmful chemicals. Nicotine replacement therapy usually takes the form of nicotine patches, gum or lozenges, nasal spray, or inhaler, aimed at curbing cravings and helping a person quit tobacco use.
