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

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Tilleda 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 may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which gives more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can easier detox and stay off drugs and not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first formed and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically include actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.

Buprenorphine might also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they'd like to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to incorporate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
