Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Warsaw, NY.

Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Warsaw who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which gives more people with access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can focus and stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would ideally involve actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger comprehensive recovery plan.

Buprenorphine will also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly misused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they'd like to take, to also work with addiction counselors to integrate other methods of substance abuse therapy and self-help actions into their plan of treatment to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
