About Carmen, AZ Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a medication that is used to help treat individuals in Carmen, AZ who are struggling with addiction to opiates, whether pharmaceutical, illicitly-made, natural, or synthetic opiates. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine – a partial opioid agonist that eases withdrawal symptoms and cravings 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 Carmen, AZ who have completed addiction requirements to prescribe Suboxone to patients addicted to opioids and are seeking help. To prevent abuse, Suboxone doctors may set forth a rule that patients come and take their dose at their office for the first weeks or months.

Methadone was previously the most common drug used for the treatment of opioid addictions, however, it could only be prescribed via a clinic licensed for methadone treatment. These limitations made it difficult to access medication managed treatment for addiction to opioid drugs. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 opened the door for individual doctors to be able to apply for a waiver, opening the door for individual doctors to prescribe Suboxone. It is important to[be aware that there are still strict regulations these doctors must follow that limit treatment, including limits to how many patients they are able to treat for addiction to painkillers and other opiates.

Choosing a Carmen, AZ Suboxone Doctor

Suboxone is a drug, and like many other medications, abuse is common. Therefore, you and your loved ones must be asking the right questions. Suboxone is not a cure for addiction, but rather one part of a recovering addict’s treatment plan.

Success Rates of Suboxone Maintenance and Medically Assisted Detox

One study reported that while on Suboxone there was a reduced rate of prescription painkiller abuse at 49%, but only 8.6% showed signs of recovery once the Suboxone treatment ended. Other studies have shown similar relapse rates of about 90%, regardless of whether Suboxone treatment was combined with therapy or not.
