About South Pekin, IL Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a medication that is used to help treat those in South Pekin, IL who are struggling with addiction to heroin, fentanyl, or any other opiate substance. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine – a partial opioid agonist that reduces withdrawal symptoms and desires to use without producing the same euphoria – and naloxone – an opioid agonist that causes withdrawal symptoms if Suboxone is injected directly into the bloodstream. This medically assisted treatment (MAT) option is uniquely accessible through Suboxone doctors in South Pekin, IL who are specially qualified to prescribe Suboxone for opioid addiction treatment. To avoid abuse, Suboxone doctors may ask that patients visit their office to take their doses at the beginning.

Before the year 2000, Methadone was the most common drug used for the treatment of opioid addictions, however, it could only be distributed by a methadone clinic. This limited access to medically managed treatment for opiate addiction. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 opened the door for individual physicians to be able to apply for a waiver, opening the door for individual doctors to prescribe Suboxone. However, there are still many rules and regulations for these doctors that limit treatment, including limits to the number of patients they are able to treat for addiction to painkillers and other opiates.
