Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Rogerson, ID.

Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Rogerson who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies more people with access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would also include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger all-encompassing plan.

Buprenorphine can also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they'd like to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
