Healthcare professionals now recognize that continued medication support can improve recovery outcomes and lower relapse risks. Naltrexone and buprenorphine are both used in long-term treatment strategies because they help people stay engaged in care and reduce the chance of returning to drug use.

Traditionally, treatment for opioid use disorder was handled mostly by addiction specialists, but this is changing. Now, more primary care providers and general practitioners are offering medication-assisted treatment using naltrexone and buprenorphine. This is partly due to reduced prescribing restrictions and increased training for non-specialists. Patients can now receive treatment from their regular doctors, making it easier to access care. This shift is helping integrate OUD treatment into everyday healthcare, which increases the number of patients who can start and continue treatment. As access widens, use of these medications is expected to keep rising.
