Opioid Addiction Therapy at Metamorphosis Centre for Change
Assessment, Medication and Recovery Support
Understanding your options is a practical first step toward treatment. At Metamorphosis, the conversation begins with your circumstances, treatment history and goals. Our team can explain residential support and arrange a clinical review of the care you may need.
Treatment for opioid use disorder can include medication alongside counselling and other support. Your plan should reflect your health, preferences and response to treatment. Contact admissions to discuss which services are currently available at our Delhi centre and how they fit with your existing care.
Start with an Individual Assessment
A clinical assessment helps establish what care is appropriate before a treatment or medication plan is agreed. Be ready to discuss your current opioid use, prescribed medicines, previous treatment, physical and mental health, and support at home.
Tell the clinician about alcohol, sedatives and other substances or medicines you take. This information matters for safe prescribing and monitoring. Do not stop or change a prescribed medication on the basis of this page.
If you already have an opioid treatment prescriber or pharmacy, ask how the centre will coordinate with them before admission. Confirm how your prescriptions and appointments will be managed during your stay and after you leave.
Understanding Medication Options
Medication names and formulations are not interchangeable. The descriptions below explain options you may hear discussed; they do not establish which medicine is right for you or confirm that every option is available through the centre.
Buprenorphine and Methadone
Buprenorphine and methadone are used in opioid agonist treatment. A clinician can explain their potential benefits, risks and follow-up requirements. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone taken under the tongue; it is different from a long-acting buprenorphine injection.
Sublocade: Monthly Buprenorphine Injection
Sublocade is extended-release buprenorphine administered under the skin by a healthcare professional. In Canada, it is indicated for adults with moderate to severe opioid use disorder and is used alongside counselling and psychosocial support.
Clinical assessment determines whether it is suitable, how treatment begins and what monitoring is needed. There is no fixed admission-to-injection timetable that applies to everyone. Ask about eligibility, risks, costs and arrangements for subsequent monthly injections.
Slow-Release Oral Morphine
Slow-release oral morphine, including Kadian, is an oral medication, not an injection. Its use for opioid use disorder is off-label in Canada, meaning it is prescribed for a use outside its approved product indication. A qualified prescriber must assess whether it is appropriate and arrange careful monitoring.
Current Medication Availability
Probuphine should not be treated as a current treatment offer. Health Canada lists the product as cancelled post-market since June 30, 2023. Discuss currently available alternatives with your clinician.
Residential Support During Treatment
Metamorphosis’s Inpatient Residential Program brings accommodation, therapy, daily routines and recovery support together. A four-week stay is one residential option; longer programs may be considered according to your needs and the agreed care plan.
The length of a residential stay is separate from the duration of medication treatment. Medication decisions and monitoring follow clinical needs. An injection is not automatically scheduled for a particular week, and leaving residential treatment does not mean that prescribed medication should end.
Before booking, ask whether you need medical withdrawal management, residential treatment, outpatient prescribing or a combination of services. You can meet our medical and nursing team before discussing the arrangements for your care. The team will explain suitability and any assessment or referral needed.
Counselling and Everyday Recovery Skills
Residential care provides time to work on more than the immediate treatment decision. Individual and group sessions can focus on coping strategies, relationships, daily routines and the situations that make recovery harder to maintain.
Your plan may also include support for loved ones, with your consent. Discuss what matters to you, how progress will be reviewed and which services are included in your chosen program.
Plan Your Follow-Up Before Leaving
Before discharge, agree on the practical arrangements for continuing care:
- Who will prescribe and monitor your medication.
- Where and when your next appointment or dose will take place.
- How relevant information will be shared with your consent.
- Which counselling, aftercare groups or follow-up check-ins are part of your plan.
- Who to contact if your needs change or an appointment is missed.
Bring questions about costs and coverage to admissions before committing to a stay. Ask for a written explanation of program fees, medication arrangements and any services billed separately.
Talk with Admissions About Opioid Treatment
Contact Metamorphosis to discuss an assessment, residential availability and coordination with your current treatment provider.
Use the opioid treatment enquiry form for general questions. Discuss medical details directly with the clinical team. The information and pricing download available after a successful form submission covers detox, inpatient and online programs. The separate email attachment covers medical detox only; it is not a quote for a residential opioid treatment plan.
Common Questions
Is opioid addiction therapy the same as detox?
No. Withdrawal management addresses a particular stage of care. An ongoing treatment plan may include medication, counselling, residential support and follow-up. An assessment helps determine which services are appropriate for you.
Will I receive an injection during my stay?
That cannot be promised before assessment. The prescriber must determine suitability, preparation and timing. Confirm current availability and the arrangements for ongoing care with admissions and the clinical team.
Can I attend if I am already taking medication for opioid use disorder?
Discuss your prescription and current care with admissions before booking. The clinical team needs to review your needs and coordinate any prescribing, pharmacy and follow-up arrangements. Do not change treatment independently to prepare for admission.
Does a four-week stay mean medication treatment lasts four weeks?
No. The residential program length and your medication plan are separate. Your prescriber will advise on ongoing treatment and monitoring, including arrangements after discharge.
Can a loved one help with the enquiry?
Yes. A family member or support person can contact admissions with general questions. Personal information and participation in care are handled with the client’s consent and applicable privacy requirements.
