Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Burgoon, OH.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Burgoon 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 dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs as well as not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned 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 include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. 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 opiate narcotics so it is sometimes misused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they want to take, to also receive help from substance abuse counselors to incorporate other methods of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of rehabilitation to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
