Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Juda, WI.

Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Juda who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies more people with access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs and not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically incorporate actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.

Buprenorphine can also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they'd like to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to integrate other forms of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of recovery so that they feel confident about recovery.
