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

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Tulsa who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which provides more people with access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual 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 stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would also include actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing recovery plan.

Buprenorphine might also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy and life repair programs into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
