Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Vicksburg, MS.

Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Vicksburg who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would also incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive plan.

Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they'd like to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to integrate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
