About Poydras, LA Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a FDA-approved medication that is used to help treat individuals in Poydras, LA who are addicted to opiates, whether pharmaceutical, illicitly-made, natural, or synthetic opiates. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone. This medically assisted treatment (MAT) option is only accessible through a doctor licensed to prescribe Subxone in Poydras, LA who are specially qualified to prescribe Suboxone for opioid addiction treatment. To prevent abuse, Suboxone doctors may require that patients visit their office to take their doses for the first weeks or months.

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 made it possible for individual practitioners to be able to apply for a waiver, allowing them to prescribe Suboxone. to note 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 opioid addiction.
