Medication treatment may be considered in relation to the substance use disorder being treated, the reason a medication was selected, dosing history, treatment response, adverse effects, concurrent medications, toxicology findings, and relevant medical conditions. For opioid use disorder, treatment may include buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone, while alcohol use disorder may be treated with medications such as naltrexone, acamprosate, or disulfiram. Medication should be considered as part of the overall treatment plan rather than interpreted from the prescription alone.
An addiction medicine expert is a physician with medical training relevant to the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and recovery of substance-related conditions and addiction. The expert may address withdrawal, intoxication, medications for addiction treatment, medical complications, monitoring, and treatment-setting decisions. The term addiction expert is broader and may describe professionals from different clinical or behavioral disciplines, so the individual expert’s education, credentials, and experience should match the specific issues being addressed.
The appropriate level of care may depend on intoxication or withdrawal risk, addiction medication needs, biomedical conditions, psychiatric or cognitive concerns, risks related to continued substance use, the recovery environment, patient preferences, and barriers to participating in treatment. These factors may be considered alongside the monitoring, staffing, medical capabilities, and services available in a particular treatment setting. Reassessment over time can help determine whether the patient should remain at the current level of care or transition to a more or less intensive setting.
