Suboxone Doctor in Peachtree Corners GA and Asheville NC

Opioid addiction and dependence physicians who specialize in suboxone treatment usually are the doctors who prescribe suboxone. However, to be more technical, all doctors can prescribe suboxone to treat a variety of issues.

Ascension Solutions Treatment focuses on using suboxone prescription medication as a way to help individuals who are dealing with opioid addiction or opioid dependence find recovery while trying to reduce the harmful effects that opioid addiction and dependence had on their life, career, relationships, and health.

Suboxone is a significantly less addictive opioid than others that are often prescribed and used, doctors often use suboxone as a way to block the effects of other opioids within your system that the individual is dependent on or addicted to.

Suboxone is an FDA-approved prescription that helps to treat opioid dependence and addiction. Suboxone is often prescribed by our doctors at Ascension Solutions Treatment to help our patients who are addicted to or are dependent on opioids including heroin, fentanyl, hydrocodone, oxycodone, morphine, and many other addictive substances find a high-success treatment. This treatment is most effective in combination with other comprehensive medical treatments like psychological support, social support, or counseling.

Each patient may be dealing with different issues when they admit themselves to our clinic for treatment. Our suboxone treatment provides many benefits to our patients including:

• Easing withdrawal symptoms
• Blocking any effects of other opioids that may still be in their system
• Reducing cravings
• Helping our patients remain in their treatment programs
• Provide fewer side effects with more therapeutic effectiveness than other alternative treatment options
• Reducing the risk of dependence on other options
• Effective dosage is accomplished sooner than with other alternatives
• Diminishing the usage of unlawful opioids
• Provides a safe, convenient, and affordable treatment option

Each dosage of Suboxone and length of usage will vary depending on each patient that comes to our clinic for treatment.

The first dosage of suboxone is often taken when the patient is in a mild to moderate withdrawal phase, this is an important step because if there are other opioids in their system still, it can send the patient into a severe withdrawal. However, if a patient is already in the first stages of their opioid withdrawal, taking their Suboxone prescription will help make them feel much better. It has been noted it can take a few days for the prescription of Suboxone to take effect and stabilize within the body, this is due to the continued use of other opioids which were taken previously, making it more difficult for the body to stabilize with Suboxone.

Suboxone takes on average five to ten minutes to fully dissolve in the mouth. The larger the prescription, the longer it can take to fully dissolve. Other factors on how long it takes for Suboxone to fully dissolve include the amount of moisture available within the mouth, as well as talking or drinking when waiting for the prescription to dissolve.

Talking and drinking can reduce the effectiveness of the tablets as the full amount will not fully dissolve in the mouth, and the Suboxone prescription will not be fully absorbed. This is why it is so important to focus when taking your prescription, and relax until it has fully dissolved.

During your first appointment with us when starting your Suboxone treatment, one of our medical staff will assist you in taking your vitals and may ask a few questions in regard to your medical history. Once this portion of the appointment is completed, a doctor will see you for about twenty to thirty minutes to determine if the Suboxone treatment is the best route for you to take. If so, you will be assigned a counselor who will follow up with you the following day.
