Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Corn, OK.

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Corn 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 in doctor's offices which supplies more people with access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used 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 diminish 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 conceived and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would ideally include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive treatment plan.

Buprenorphine might also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be abused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they want to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to integrate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their plan of treatment to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
