Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Attleboro, MA.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Attleboro 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 only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first formed and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically involve actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.

Buprenorphine can also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly misused. For this reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they want to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to incorporate other forms of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
