Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Marion, IL.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Marion 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 may be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help someone who is experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can easier detox and stay off drugs and not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first conceived and implemented, it wasn't meant 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 part of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.

Buprenorphine will also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be abused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to incorporate other forms of behavioral therapy and self-help actions into their course of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
