While Synergy recognizes
that it is ideal for individuals participating in heroin addiction treatment,
as well as those in prescription drug addiction treatment, to do so by participating
in a well balanced program using a holistic approach to drug abuse treatment such
as ours; we also recognize that some individuals will require assistance from
medications such as Suboxone®. Suboxone® treatment has been shown to complement
treatment for drug addiction and can be used safely for several months to ease
the physical symptoms of opiate withdrawal. Suboxone ® is often prescribed to
treat dependency to opiates including OxyContin ®, Vicodin ®, Lortab ® or Fentanyl.
Our medical staff at Synergy is specifically trained and licensed in Suboxone
treatment thereby allowing Synergy to be able to provide our clients with the
care and assistance they need to initially maintain and eventually taper their
Suboxone® use.
Unfortunately, even within the confines of a well designed
and implemented heroin addiction program or prescription drug (hydrocodone, oxycodone,
Xanax®, etc.) program an individual may have difficulty discontinuing their Suboxone®
treatment. Synergy is fully prepared to and capable of work closely with this
individual to develop a holistic treatment program which will free them from their
Suboxone® use and fully enter recovery.
