Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Moran, MI.

Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Moran who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to 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 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 withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs and not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned 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 substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger comprehensive plan.

Buprenorphine might also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they prefer to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to integrate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
