Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Brownsville, WI.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Brownsville who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which provides more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would also incorporate actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger comprehensive treatment plan.

Buprenorphine will also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes misused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of behavioral therapy and life repair actions into their course of treatment so that they are not at risk of relapse.
