About Fyffe, AL Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a FDA-approved medication that is used to help treat individuals in Fyffe, AL who are addicted to opiates, whether pharmaceutical, illicitly-made, natural, or synthetic opiates. 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 only available through Suboxone doctors in Fyffe, AL who are specially qualified to prescribe Suboxone to patients addicted to opioids and are seeking help. To avoid abuse, Suboxone doctors may ask that patients come and take their dose at their office for the first weeks or months.

Before the year 2000, Methadone was the most common drug used for the treatment of opioid addictions, with the caveat that it could only be prescribed via a methadone clinic. These limitations made it difficult to access medically managed treatment for addiction to opioid drugs. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 opened the door for individual doctors to be able to apply for a waiver, opening the door for individual practitioners to prescribe Suboxone. However, there are still many rules and regulations for these doctors that limit treatment, including limits to how many patients they are able to treat for addiction to painkillers and other opiates.

Finding a Suboxone Doctor in Fyffe, AL

When searching for a Suboxone doctor in Fyffe, AL the first thing to do is to research the options that are accessible and covered by health insurance. In addition to finding a physician you can afford, make sure they are qualified. Qualified physicians and mid-level practitioners in the United States must have an X-license to be able to prescribe Suboxone as a medication for opioid addiction treatment. Patients should also enroll in additional treatment programs that encourage recovery, such as outpatient programs, or other evidence-based treatment options to support a positive outcome while partaking in medication assisted treatment.

Success Rates of Suboxone Maintenance and Medically Assisted Detox

An addictive substance in itself, it is commonly debated on whether Suboxone truly works to treat opioid addiction. Some addicts have reported great success with Suboxone treatment, whereas others did not. One study reported that 49% of participants abused prescription painkillers at a reduced rate while on Suboxone, but only 8.6% showed abstinence once the Suboxone treatment ended. Other studies did not show long term success with a less than 10% success rate once treatment ended, regardless of whether Suboxone treatment was combined with therapy or not.
