Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Adona, AR.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Adona who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which provides easier access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs and not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would ideally involve actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger comprehensive plan.

Buprenorphine can also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it can be abused. This is another reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of substance abuse counselors to integrate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
