Heroin addiction is a severe and chronic disease that can lead to devastating consequences if left untreated. In Toledo and Maumee, Ohio, Vital Health offers comprehensive heroin addiction treatment programs designed to help individuals achieve lasting recovery. Our evidence-based approach integrates medication-assisted treatment (MAT), behavioral therapies, and robust support systems to address the complex needs of those struggling with opioid dependence.
The opioid crisis has deeply impacted communities across Ohio, with heroin and fentanyl posing significant threats. Our programs are designed to address the immediate dangers of opioid use, including the prevalence of fentanyl-laced heroin, and provide a safe pathway to recovery. We emphasize rapid intervention and personalized care to mitigate risks and support long-term sobriety.
Ambulatory detox typically lasts 5–10 days. Your medical provider decides the right length for you. We provide outpatient (ambulatory) detox for alcohol, opioids (including heroin) and benzodiazepines when it's medically safe outside a hospital. Your medical provider decides, using standard withdrawal assessment scales. We do not provide inpatient detox. Detox is provided by our medical team, including a nurse practitioner under physician supervision, with daily monitoring and therapy and group services based on your treatment plan. If you have severe withdrawal symptoms, such as seizures, hallucinations or confusion, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) using Sublocade or Vivitrol may be available when clinically appropriate after a medical evaluation. These FDA-approved medications significantly reduce cravings and block the effects of opioids, providing a stable foundation for recovery. Alongside MAT, clients engage in intensive outpatient programs (IOP) or partial hospitalization programs (PHP) that incorporate individual and group therapy, focusing on relapse prevention, coping skills, and addressing underlying mental health conditions.
At Vital Health, an assessment helps determine the appropriate next step. A same-day assessment may be available depending on the service and availability. See insurance we accept. A person answers calls 8:30 AM–6:30 PM. After hours, our AI intake assistant answers and routes urgent needs.
Beyond medical interventions, our heroin addiction treatment emphasizes comprehensive therapeutic support. Individual counseling sessions provide a safe space to explore the root causes of addiction, develop personalized coping strategies, and set achievable recovery goals. Group therapy fosters a sense of community and shared experience, allowing clients to connect with peers, practice new social skills, and build a strong support network. Our programs also integrate family therapy, recognizing the crucial role of family in the recovery process and working to heal relationships strained by addiction.

Much of today's street heroin contains fentanyl. Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid 50-100 times stronger than morphine. This means every use carries a risk of fatal overdose, even for experienced users. Treatment is available.
If you or someone you love is using heroin, the risk of death is real and immediate. Please call (419) 740-3022 today.
