Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Silver Springs, NV.

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Silver Springs who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies more people with access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically involve actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive plan.

Buprenorphine will also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is commonly misused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they want to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to incorporate other forms of substance abuse therapy and self-help actions into their plan of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
