Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Bradner, OH.

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Bradner who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would typically involve actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.

Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it can be misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also work with addiction counselors to incorporate other types of behavioral therapy and self-help programs into their course of recovery so that they feel confident about recovery.
