Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Francis, OK.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Francis who are dependent to opoids such as 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 may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can focus and stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would typically include actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing plan.

Buprenorphine will also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of rehabilitation so that they feel confident about recovery.
