Medication-Assisted Treatment

Buprenorphine

Buprenorphine is a medication that comes in film, tablet or injectable form. By taking the place of the opioids used by patients, buprenorphine prevents cravings and makes withdrawal from opioids feel less intense. Patients on buprenorphine report feeling normal, functional and clear-headed all day long, which allows them to make positive choices the way that they did prior to their addiction. When combined with counseling and other forms of support, buprenorphine can be highly effective in helping patients recover from addiction.Steadfast Behavioral Health Group provides buprenorphine treatment through:
