Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Pasadena, MD.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Pasadena who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which gives more people with access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically incorporate actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing plan.

Buprenorphine can also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes abused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they prefer to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to include other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their plan of recovery so that they feel confident about recovery.
