About Lakewood, WA Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a medication that is used to help treat individuals in Lakewood, WA who are addicted to opiates, whether pharmaceutical, illicitly-made, natural, or synthetic opiates. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine – a partial opioid agonist that relieves withdrawal symptoms and desires to use without producing the same high – 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 Lakewood, WA who are specially qualified to prescribe Suboxone to patients addicted to opioids and are seeking help. 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 drug used for the treatment of opioid addictions, with the caveat that it could only be distributed by a methadone clinic. These limitations made it difficult to access medication managed treatment for opioid addicts. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 opened the door for individual practitioners to be able to apply for a waiver, allowing them 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 opioid addiction.

In addition to finding financially viable doctors, make sure they are qualified.
