Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Manitowish Waters, WI.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Manitowish Waters who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first conceived and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would also incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger comprehensive plan.

Buprenorphine will also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they want to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to integrate other methods of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of treatment to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
