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

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Kinta 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 administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which provides easier access to this type of opiate 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 works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally involve actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger comprehensive treatment plan.

Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be abused. For this reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to integrate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of treatment to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
