Monthly MAT Support to Stabilize Recovery and Prevent Relapse
At Lanier Recovery Center, we provide cutting-edge addiction treatment options backed by medical science and compassion. For individuals recovering from opioid use disorder, Sublocade offers a powerful and convenient form of Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)—delivered just once a month to help reduce cravings, block withdrawal symptoms, and support long-term sobriety.
If you or your loved one is struggling with opioid dependence, Sublocade may be the missing link in creating lasting change.
What Is Sublocade?
Sublocade is an extended-release injectable form of buprenorphine, a partial opioid agonist. It’s administered once a month by a healthcare provider and is designed to maintain stable levels of medication in the body—helping reduce cravings and prevent relapse without the need for daily dosing.
Unlike oral buprenorphine (such as Suboxone), Sublocade eliminates the risk of missed doses, misuse, or diversion—making it an ideal option for individuals seeking consistency and accountability in their recovery journey.
How Sublocade Works
Sublocade binds to opioid receptors in the brain, reducing the effects of withdrawal and cravings. However, it does so in a way that doesn’t create a euphoric high, allowing individuals to focus on healing without the fog or cycle of addiction.
It also blocks the effects of other opioids, reducing the likelihood of relapse even if a person attempts to use during treatment.
Who Is a Candidate for Sublocade?
Sublocade is FDA-approved for individuals with moderate to severe opioid use disorder who have already stabilized on an oral form of buprenorphine for at least 7 days. At Lanier Recovery Center, we evaluate each client’s history, current symptoms, and recovery goals to determine if Sublocade is the right fit.
Sublocade may be recommended if you:
Struggle with daily medication adherence
Want to avoid the stigma or stress of carrying oral medications
Are looking for long-acting MAT support with less daily burden
Have had previous success with buprenorphine-based treatment
