Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Rockville, MD.

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Rockville who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally involve actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive plan.

Buprenorphine will also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they want to take, to also receive help from substance abuse counselors to incorporate other forms of behavioral therapy and life repair programs into their plan of rehabilitation so that they feel confident about recovery.
