Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Morland, KS.

Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Morland 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 distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would also incorporate actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.

Buprenorphine will also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it can be misused. For this reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
