Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Loveland, CO.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Loveland who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which provides more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would ideally involve actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger comprehensive recovery plan.

Buprenorphine will also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to integrate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their course of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
