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

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Oden 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 dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would also involve actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.

Buprenorphine might also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to include other types of behavioral therapy and self-help programs into their plan of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
