BISMARCK, N.D. (PRWEB)

Ideal Option, a national leader in outpatient medication-assisted treatment for opioids, methamphetamine, alcohol and polysubstance, will host an open house at their new clinic in Bismarck on Thursday, October 27, at 1221 W Divide Ave, Ste. 202.

In response to an uptick in fentanyl usage, Ideal Option has opened a second clinic in Bismarck to expand access to specialized addiction treatment using buprenorphine-based medications like Suboxone® for residents of Burleigh County and surrounding areas.

According to the Bismarck Police, North Dakota is seeing a substantial increase in the amount of fentanyl arrests and possessions statewide.

Ideal Option’s own lab testing data, collected from patients across North Dakota, show a 95% increase in fentanyl positive rates at enrollment compared to 2020.

On Thursday, October 27, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., all members of the community are invited to drop by the new Ideal Option clinic in Bismarck located at 1221 W Divide Ave, Ste. 202.

During the open house, attendees can tour the new facility, enjoy refreshments, learn more about Ideal Option and their specialized protocols for treating fentanyl use, pick up materials, and meet their staff.
