About Timberlane, LA Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a medication that is used to help treat individuals in Timberlane, LA who are struggling with addiction to heroin, fentanyl, or any other opiate substance. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone. This medication assisted treatment (MAT) option is solely available through a doctor licensed to prescribe Subxone in Timberlane, LA who have completed addiction requirements to prescribe Suboxone to those seeking opioid addiction treatment. To prevent 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 widely accepted drug used for opioid addiction management, but it could only be prescribed via a methadone clinic. These limitations made it difficult to access MAT for opiate addiction. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 made it possible for individual practitioners to be able to apply for a waiver, opening the door for individual practitioners to prescribe Suboxone. However, there are still strict 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.
