Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Bleiblerville, TX.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Bleiblerville who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would typically involve actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger all-encompassing plan.

Buprenorphine will also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly abused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to integrate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their plan of treatment to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
