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

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

When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs and not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically involve actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger comprehensive treatment plan.

Buprenorphine might also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it can be misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to integrate other forms of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of rehabilitation so that they feel confident about recovery.
