About Buckner, MO Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a medication that is used to help treat people in Buckner, MO who are struggling with addiction to heroin, fentanyl, or any other opiate substance. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone: a partial opioid agonist that eases withdrawal symptoms and desires to use without producing the same high, and a opioid agonist that causes withdrawal symptoms if Suboxone is injected directly into the bloodstream. This medically assisted treatment (MAT) option is only available through a doctor licensed to prescribe Subxone in Buckner, MO who are specially qualified to prescribe Suboxone to individuals 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.

Before the year 2000, Methadone was the most frequently used medication used for opioid addiction management, however, it could only be prescribed via 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 opened the door for individual practitioners to be able to apply for a waiver, opening the door for individual practitioners to prescribe Suboxone. It is important to[be aware that there are still strict regulations for these doctors that limit treatment, including limits to the number of patients they are able to treat for opioid addiction.
