The Ascend Health PLLC Suboxone Clinic team is comprised of addiction-medicine trained physicians, nurse practitioners (NPs), and physician assistants (PAs) who are committed to providing safe, confidential, and affordable Suboxone treatment for opioid use disorder. At Ascend Health PLLC, we combine buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) treatment with behavioral health support to help our patients live a life free of opioid abuse.
A treatment plan for an addiction to Opioids is Suboxone. Suboxone is made up of Buprenorphine & Naloxone and it can be used to be weaned off Opioids under supervised medical treatment. Our health care plans have one goal in mind: help you get off your addiction to Opioids.
Ascend Health values the benefit of therapy and our patient’s wellbeing. Ascend Health works with certified substance abuse counselors to make sure our patients receive the best care possible. We offer one on one addiction counseling for all patients and accept insurance.
Suboxone is part of a family of medications used in medication-assisted treatment (MAT) called “opioid antagonists,” which is the opposite of “opioid agonists” such as heroin, morphine and oxycodone. Our Suboxone Clinic helps patients manage their Suboxone Medication.
Our Suboxone Clinic accepts new patients and accepts insurances like BlueCross Blue Shield, NC Medicaid and Medicare plans. Our Suboxone Doctors are here to provide the industry leading Suboxone Medication Management with personalized treatment plans!
Ascend Health is driven by dedication to our patients. We offer many benefits to our patients.
We will provide industry-leading care in an environment that is safe and compassionate.
Suboxone Clinics are designed to provide medication-assisted treatment services for patients who are independent and can be responsible for their own day-to-day living. Suboxone Clinics are not designed to support patients with severe mental illnesses that co-occur with their addiction. We have an excellent referral network and we will do our best to redirect such patients to facilities that are better able to address their illnesses.
The standard of care for opioid addiction is to use an effective medication, either buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone, to control withdrawal, cravings, and reduce the risk of return to other opioid use (relapse). Behavioral health and social support further improves success rates. This combined approach has been referred to as “medication-assisted treatment,” but this phrase has fallen out of favor because the medication is essential to effective treatment.
The combination of buprenorphine and naloxone in a dissolving film or tablet is commonly known by the brand-name, Suboxone, the most well-known FDA-approved medication for treatment of opioid use disorder.
Suboxone helps patients to feel normal and healthy. When taken as prescribed by a certified suboxone doctor at a Suboxone Clinic, it treats opioid dependence/addiction and does not cause the negative impacts of uncontrolled substance use on one’s life, goals, and health.
Research shows that with MAT, 75% of patients will still be in recovery one year later. Conversely, studies demonstrate that within one month of stopping buprenorphine treatment, more than 50% of patients relapse to illicit opioid use.
Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT), is a combination of medication and counseling to treat substance abuse disorders. This combination of behavioral and medication therapies has been proven to be beneficial in helping people stay on the road to recovery.
It is crucial to address substance abuse in order to provide quality care in an integrated setting. Many people who have a substance abuse disorder also suffer from chronic conditions. Integrative care that incorporates substance use screening and treatment can lead to better outcomes for patients.
Suboxone, a prescription medication that is used to treat addiction to Opioids (legal or prescription), is available as a prescription drug. It contains Naloxone and buprenorphine. Buprenorphine is a partial Opioid antagonist. It blocks Opiate receptors, and reduces the person’s need to eat. Naloxone is the second ingredient that reverses the effects of Opioids. These drugs can be combined to reduce withdrawal symptoms that are associated with Opioid addiction.
Suboxone is not like other Opioid substitute medications which require a prescription from an specialized treatment center. Suboxone can be prescribed directly by your doctor. Suboxone is used by many people in both the beginning of treatment and throughout their recovery. A personalized treatment plan can be developed by your doctor or addiction counselor.
Substance Abuse Therapy is often a combination between individual and group therapy sessions. It teaches people in recovery how to stay sober and how to deal with different situations. One of the most popular types of addiction treatment that is used in substance rehab is behavioral therapy. The general approach to behavioral therapy has been modified into many effective methods.
Pain is often a reason people become subject to opioid addiction. Suboxone is a great way to manage pain without the high risk of abuse. This is key to those who are struggling with pain management.
Suboxone does not produce a high and only allows for someone to feel normal. These non addictive qualities make Suboxone such an effective method of overcoming addiction.
Suboxone makes the brain produce the same reaction that it would while taking drugs. This reduces withdrawal symptoms and allows for an individual to change harmful habits into healthy ones.
