Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Bancroft, MI.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Bancroft 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 may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would ideally incorporate actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.

Buprenorphine might also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to include other methods of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of treatment to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
