Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Newark, NY.

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Newark who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which gives more people with access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms 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 engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would also involve actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger all-encompassing plan.

Buprenorphine will also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it can be abused. This is another reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy and life repair programs into their plan of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
