Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Grandin, MO.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Grandin who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs as well as not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally involve actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger comprehensive recovery plan.

Buprenorphine might also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to integrate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of rehabilitation so that they feel confident about recovery.
