Drug given are drugs like buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that help curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid dependent people.

An opioid treatment program can get their initial certification while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid treatment programs accredited by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. In addition, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA office. Once an opioid rehab facility is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified each year or every three years contingent upon the type of accreditation that was given.
