Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Yeoman, IN.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Yeoman who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which gives easier access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing recovery plan.

Buprenorphine might also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it can be abused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to integrate other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their plan of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
