Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Fedora, SD.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Fedora who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies more people with access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs and not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first formed and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally incorporate actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive plan.

Buprenorphine will also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they want to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to integrate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
