Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Valmy, NV.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Valmy who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and put into action, 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 part of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.

Buprenorphine will also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it can be abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they'd like to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to incorporate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their course of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
