Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Seeley Lake, MT.

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Seeley Lake 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 only allowed to be dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps 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 concept was first formed and implemented, it wasn't meant 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 component of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.

Buprenorphine can also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their plan of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
