Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Orford, NH.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Orford who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which provides easier access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical 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 "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger comprehensive recovery plan.

Buprenorphine will also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they want to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to integrate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their plan of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
