Sublocade Treatment
What Is Sublocade Treatment
Sublocade is a long-acting, FDA-approved injectable medication used to treat opioid addiction. It delivers a steady dose of buprenorphine over an extended period, helping individuals maintain stability without the need for daily medication.
At North Fulton Treatment Center, Sublocade is offered as part of a comprehensive, ethical treatment program that includes therapy, clinical oversight, and long-term support. Medication is never used alone. It is one component of a broader recovery plan focused on stability and personal growth.

A Thoughtful, Individualized Approach
Sublocade is not the right choice for everyone.
At North Fulton Treatment Center, medication decisions are never rushed or standardized. We take the time to understand each patient’s history, goals, and comfort level before recommending any medication.
Some patients choose Sublocade as a longer-term maintenance option. Others use it as part of a step-down approach toward eventual medication tapering. Both paths are respected and supported.
Therapy Remains Central to Treatment

- Strengthening coping and stress management skills
- Supporting identity and lifestyle changes
- Building confidence and self-respect
