Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Davison, MI.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Davison 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 usually only distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which supplies more people with access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would typically include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger comprehensive treatment plan.

Buprenorphine will also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they'd like to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to incorporate other forms of substance abuse therapy and life repair actions into their plan of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
