Suboxone Addiction Rehab
There are many drugs to which people can become addicted. Suboxone is a synthetic opiate typically used to help people who are in recovery manage their withdrawal symptoms. However, a problem often occurs when people become dependent on the suboxone itself and will abuse it. Continued suboxone abuse can result in physical dependency. Suboxone dependency doesn’t have to control your life through help from a suboxone addiction treatment center. Suboxone is related to Subutex, which we also provide treatment at the Subutex addiction treatment center in CA.
Since Suboxone is an opiate, an addict can experience potent physical cravings for the substance. The withdrawal will be painful, and it will be difficult for the addicted individual to function well without the drug. It is typically prescribed as an outpatient drug, so people may get into the habit of trying to acquire it from multiple physicians. As with any drug addiction, addicts may have difficulties in their lives due to the addiction, avoid people in their lives and become secretive about what they are doing.
At worst, suboxone abuse can cause death due to overdose or interactions between the suboxone and other substances. Opiates are a depressant and slow down breathing, as well as brain and motor functions. At the extreme, this can yield complications, such as respiratory failure and damage to the kidneys and liver.
