Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Mount Hope, KS.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Mount Hope who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would also include actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger comprehensive plan.

Buprenorphine can also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they'd like to take, to also work with addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
