Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Lost Springs, WY.

Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Lost Springs 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 usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which provides more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would also involve actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger comprehensive recovery plan.

Buprenorphine can also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it can be abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to include other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of treatment to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
