About Rockledge, AL Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a pharmaceutical drug that is used to help treat individuals in Rockledge, AL who are struggling with addiction to heroin, fentanyl, or any other opiate substance. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine – a partial opioid agonist that eases withdrawal symptoms and desires to use without producing the same high – and naloxone – an opioid agonist that causes withdrawal symptoms if Suboxone is injected directly into the bloodstream. This medication assisted treatment (MAT) option is solely accessible through Suboxone doctors in Rockledge, AL who have completed addiction requirements to prescribe Suboxone to people addicted to opioids and are seeking help. To minimize the likelihood of abuse, Suboxone doctors may set forth a rule that patients come and take their dose at their office at the beginning.

Before the year 2000, Methadone was the most frequently used pharmaceutical treatment used for the treatment of opioid addictions, however, it could only be distributed by a clinic licensed for methadone treatment. This limited access to MAT for opioid addicts. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 created the option for individual physicians to be able to apply for a waiver, allowing them to prescribe Suboxone. to note that there are still many rules and regulations these doctors must follow that limit treatment. This includes how many patients they are able to treat for addiction to painkillers and other opiates.
