About Valdese, NC Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a FDA-approved medication that is used to help treat people in Valdese, NC who are addicted to opiates, whether pharmaceutical, illicitly-made, natural, or synthetic opiates. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone: a partial opioid agonist that relieves 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 medication assisted treatment (MAT) option is only accessible through a doctor licensed to prescribe Subxone in Valdese, NC who have completed addiction requirements to prescribe Suboxone for opioid addiction treatment. To avoid abuse, Suboxone doctors may require that patients visit their office to take their doses for the first weeks or months.

Before the year 2000, Methadone was the most common medication used for opioid addiction management, however, it could only be prescribed via a clinic licensed for methadone treatment. These limitations made it difficult to access 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 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.

Choosing a Valdese, NC Suboxone Doctor

When selecting a Suboxone Doctor in Valdese, NCthere are a few important factors to consider. To ensure success with medication assisted treatment, selecting a Suboxone doctor that monitors your progress closely is imperative for success. Connect with the physician and ask them how closely they monitor their clients, if they ever allow patients to take a few doses of Suboxone home to be self-administered, and how long before they typically start sending clients home with multiple doses.

A few common factors that are important to consider when in search of a physician include whether they are taking new patients, their office proximity to the patient’s house, and if their office hours align with the addict’s schedule Due to limits on the number of patients a physician can care for, it may be difficult to find a qualified physician in or near Valdese, NC. However, if you have various personal responsibilities, then traveling a long distance every day for your Suboxone treatment might not be practical. Our directory or helpline can help you in looking for a physician whose location and office hours work well for you and who is currently accepting new patients.
