About Mertzon, TX Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a FDA-approved medication that is used to help treat people in Mertzon, TX who are struggling with addiction to heroin, fentanyl, or any other opioid drug. 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 medically assisted treatment (MAT) option is solely available through Suboxone doctors in Mertzon, TX who are specially qualified to prescribe Suboxone to those seeking opioid addiction treatment. To avoid abuse, Suboxone doctors may require that patients visit their office to take their doses at the beginning.

This limited access to medication managed treatment for opioid addicts. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 made it possible for individual doctors to be able to apply for a waiver, opening the door for individual practitioners to prescribe Suboxone. to note that there are still strict regulations these doctors must follow that limit treatment, including limits to the number of patients they are able to treat for opioid addiction.
