About Plain Dealing, LA Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a medication that is used to help treat individuals in Plain Dealing, LA who are struggling with addiction to opiates, whether pharmaceutical, illicitly-made, natural, or synthetic opiates. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone: a partial opioid agonist that eases withdrawal symptoms and cravings without producing the same high, and a 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 Plain Dealing, LA who have completed addiction requirements to prescribe Suboxone to those seeking opioid addiction treatment. To prevent abuse, Suboxone doctors may demand that patients come and take their dose at their office at the beginning.

Before the year 2000, Methadone was the most common medication used for opioid addiction management, however, it could only be distributed by a methadone clinic. This limited access to medication managed treatment for opioid addicts. 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 opioid addiction.
