Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Falling Rock, WV.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Falling Rock who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can focus and stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally involve actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.

Buprenorphine will also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. For this reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they want to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their course of recovery so that they feel confident about recovery.
