Opiate Addiction Treatment in Los Angeles, California

The Opioid Epidemic

The United States is in the midst of a prolonged opioid epidemic that has claimed hundreds of thousands of lives. The epidemic has evolved through three waves: the first driven by prescription opioids in the 1990s and 2000s; the second by heroin as prescription opioids became harder to obtain; and the third — ongoing — by illicitly manufactured fentanyl and fentanyl analogs. Keystone Health Group is committed to providing accessible, evidence-based treatment for all people affected by opioid use disorder.

Types of Opiates We Treat

We provide treatment for addiction to all opioid substances, including: prescription opioids (oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, tramadol, morphine, oxymorphone), heroin, fentanyl and fentanyl analogs, buprenorphine dependency, and methadone. Each substance has a different pharmacological profile that our physicians account for in designing the detox and treatment protocol.

The Role of MAT in Opiate Treatment

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with buprenorphine is the evidence-based standard for opioid use disorder. Research consistently shows that MAT reduces overdose mortality, decreases illicit opioid use, improves treatment retention, and reduces criminal activity. Our physicians work with each client to determine whether MAT is appropriate and for how long.
