About Vashon Heights, WA Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a pharmaceutical substance that is used to help treat people in Vashon Heights, WA 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 reduces 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 medically assisted treatment (MAT) option is only accessible through a doctor licensed to prescribe Subxone in Vashon Heights, WA who are specially qualified to prescribe Suboxone for opioid addiction treatment. To avoid abuse, Suboxone doctors may require that patients visit their office to take their doses at the beginning.

Before the year 2000, Methadone was the most frequently used drug used for opioid addiction management, however, it could only be distributed by a clinic licensed for methadone treatment. This limited access to MAT for opiate addiction. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 made it possible for individual doctors to be able to apply for a waiver, allowing them to prescribe Suboxone. to note that there are still many rules and regulations these doctors must follow that limit treatment, including limits to how many patients they are able to treat for addiction to painkillers and other opiates.
