Reduce cravings and withdrawal with medications like Suboxone — we guide you safely through starting treatment.

Including heavy or daily drinking

Reduce cravings and support cutting back or stopping with proven medications. Some people need in-person detox first — we'll help you figure out the right path.

Stimulant use

There are no FDA-approved medications for stimulants, but we offer off-label support to help with cravings, sleep, and mood — alongside ongoing care from our team.

Help for what you're dealing with

Recovery starts with a call

Stay Supported

Your care team checks in regularly — helping you manage medication, navigate challenges, and stay on track.

What to know before you call

  • Calling or texting is free. If you have Medi-Cal, we can help get your visits and medication covered.

  • Most patients get started the same day they call. Timing can depend on pharmacy availability in your area, but our care team will work with you to find the fastest option.

  • No. Tell us honestly where you are — that's what helps us treat you correctly.

  • No. Akido is not an inpatient or residential program, and there's no clinic to visit. You'll connect with a licensed provider by phone or video to get started, and if they prescribe medication, you'll pick it up at your local pharmacy.

  • With fentanyl, that's a real risk — and it's one of the most important things we manage. Starting Suboxone too soon can cause a sudden and severe worsening of symptoms. Our clinicians guide the timing of your first dose specifically to reduce that risk. We walk you through it step by step.

  • Your care is private. We follow strict privacy laws that protect your treatment records. We don't share your information without your permission.

  • No. Tell us honestly where you are — that's what helps us treat you correctly.

  • Confidential — No one needs to know you called

  • Medi-Cal accepted — We check your eligibility on the call

  • Fast — Same-day support

  • Safe — We stay with you after your first dose

You're not doing this alone.

Our team includes addiction medicine providers and substance use counselors who support you beyond the prescription — helping you navigate your first dose, work through pharmacy challenges, and stay connected to care over time.

"They got me on Suboxone the same day I called. I didn't think it could happen that fast."
