About Old Harbor, AK Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a medication that is used to help treat people in Old Harbor, AK who are struggling with addiction to heroin, fentanyl, or any other opiate substance. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine – a partial opioid agonist that eases withdrawal symptoms and desires to use without producing the same euphoria – and naloxone – an opioid agonist that causes withdrawal symptoms if Suboxone is injected directly into the bloodstream. This medication assisted treatment (MAT) option is uniquely accessible through Suboxone doctors in Old Harbor, AK who are specially qualified to prescribe Suboxone for opioid addiction treatment. To avoid abuse, Suboxone doctors may set forth a rule that patients come and take their dose at their office at the beginning.

Before the year 2000, Methadone was the most frequently used pharmaceutical treatment used for the treatment of opioid addictions, with the caveat that it could only be distributed by a clinic licensed for methadone treatment. These limitations made it difficult to access MAT for opioid addicts. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 created the option 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 many rules and regulations these doctors must follow that limit treatment, including limits to the number of patients they are able to treat for opioid addiction.
