About Westphalia, KS Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a medication that is used to help treat individuals in Westphalia, KS who are struggling with addiction to opiates, whether pharmaceutical, illicitly-made, natural, or synthetic opiates. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone: a partial opioid agonist that alleviates withdrawal symptoms and cravings without producing the same euphoria, and a opioid agonist that causes withdrawal symptoms if Suboxone is injected directly into the bloodstream. This medication assisted treatment (MAT) option is only available through a doctor licensed to prescribe Subxone in Westphalia, KS who have completed addiction requirements to prescribe Suboxone for opioid addiction treatment. To prevent abuse, Suboxone doctors may demand that patients visit their office to take their doses at the beginning.

Methadone was previously 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. These limitations made it difficult to access MAT for addiction to opioid drugs. 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. It is important to[be aware that 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.
