Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Rosalia, KS.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Rosalia who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can focus and stay off drugs and not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first conceived and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would typically incorporate actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing plan.

Buprenorphine might also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they'd like to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to integrate other methods of substance abuse therapy and self-help actions into their plan of rehabilitation so that they feel confident about recovery.
