Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Kaukauna, WI.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Kaukauna 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 highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which supplies more people with access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used 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 minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would ideally include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.

Buprenorphine might also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of substance abuse counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their course of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
