Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Premium, KY.

Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Premium 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 may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can easier detox and stay off drugs and not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first formed and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.

Buprenorphine can also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they want to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their course of recovery so that they feel confident about recovery.
