Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Enosburg Falls, VT.

Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Enosburg Falls who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs and not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would also incorporate actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive plan.

Buprenorphine might also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly abused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they'd like to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to incorporate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their plan of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
