About Leesburg, AL Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone.

To minimize the likelihood of abuse, Suboxone doctors may require that patients come and take their dose at their office at the beginning.

Methadone was previously the most common medication used for opioid addiction management, but it could only be prescribed via a clinic licensed for methadone treatment. These limitations made it difficult to access MAT for opioid addicts. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 opened the door for individual practitioners to be able to apply for a waiver, opening the door for individual doctors to prescribe Suboxone. to note that there are still many rules and regulations for these doctors that limit treatment. This includes how many patients they are able to treat for opioid addiction.
