Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Rose Hill, KS.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Rose Hill who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would typically involve actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger comprehensive treatment plan.

Buprenorphine can also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is commonly misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they want to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy and self-help actions into their plan of rehabilitation to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
