Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Carmel, IN.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Carmel 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 usually only distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which provides more people with 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 associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can easier detox and stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would ideally include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger comprehensive recovery plan.

Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it can be abused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they want to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of rehabilitation to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
