Oh-Oh-Oh Ozempic for Addiction Recovery? Naltrexone-Like Craving Suppressant is Sweeping the Recovery Community Recovery in the Middle Ages - Two Middle-Aged Suburban Dads Talk About Recovering From Addiction to Drugs & Alcohol.

Semiglutides in Sobriety: A New Frontier in Addiction Recovery?
 
In this week’s episode of Recovery in the Middle Ages, we delve into the groundbreaking realm of semiglutide medications, such as Ozempic, and their emerging role in addiction treatment. As science advances, so does our understanding of how these drugs not only aid in weight loss, but also show promise in the realm of addiction recovery. We'll explore the current scientific insights on semiglutides' effects on the brain and body, specifically their potential to alter the brain's reward pathways and reduce the dopamine-driven pleasure associated with addictive behaviors.
 
We also discuss Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) more broadly, navigating the complexities and controversies surrounding MAT in the recovery community, touching on the balance between medication use and traditional recovery methods.

If you’re in trouble with substance abuse and need help, reach out. There are thousands of people who have put problems with addiction in their rear-view mirrors and you can be one of them. While we neither endorse nor condemn any particular program, the sheer number of available AA and NA meetings suggest that reaching out to those organizations would be a good first step, (but maybe not the last step), on your road to recovery.
