Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Ashippun, WI.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Ashippun 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 highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which gives more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings 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 engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally incorporate actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger comprehensive recovery plan.

Buprenorphine might also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they'd like to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to incorporate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
