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

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Mc Naughton 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 dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first conceived and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would also involve actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.

Buprenorphine can also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be misused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they prefer to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to include other methods of behavioral therapy and life repair programs into their course of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
