Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Coyote Flats, TX.

Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Coyote Flats who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which gives easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can easier detox and stay off drugs and not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger all-encompassing plan.

Buprenorphine can also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they want to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
