Our Services

Opioids

Canada is in the midst of an opioid epidemic, with devastating effects on individuals, families, and our communities.  Overdose deaths are continuing to rise.  Opioids include heroin, prescription pain medications such as codeine, morphine, oxycodone (Percocet, OxyContin), and hydromorphone (Dilaudid).  We are seeing the rise of extremely potent and deadly opioids such as fentanyl and carfentanil.  Fortunately, highly effective and life-saving medications are available which treat withdrawal and rapidly stabilize opioid addiction to allow people to feel normal again and break the cycle of dependence.  Halton & Mississauga RAAM Clinic provides immediate access to Methadone, Suboxone and Sublocade treatment programs to allow patients get their lives back… 

Alcohol

Alcohol addiction is widespread, progressive, and often goes unrecognized and untreated. This eventually leads to health, relational, occupational, financial, or other problems.  Effective anti-craving medications exist which can help people reduce or stop their consumption of alcohol. Our doctors at the Halton & Mississauga RAAM Clinic are experienced in the use of these medications, and will help determine the best treatment plan based on each patient’s unique goals and health situation.

Other Substances

Medication-assisted treatment options are available to assist with the problematic use of other substances including stimulants (cocaine, methamphetamine), cannabis, and tobacco/nicotine.  We also provide expert guidance for patients interested in tapering off sedative-hypnotic medications, such as benzodiazepines and zopiclone.
