In the medical community, opioid dependency is not just a recreational addiction. Within the last 20 years, researchers discovered that dependency and addiction is actually a medical condition caused by changes in brain chemistry with the use of opioids. The changes don't go away when someone stops using opioids and may not go away for months especially the withdrawal symptoms and the cravings. Las Vegas doctors classify the dependency in the same vein as general medical conditions such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure or diabetes.
Unfortunately, opioid dependency and addiction still carries the label of social stigma by the public. Also, unfortunately, this stigma deters people from seeking treatment for the dependency. As a result, opioid dependence has taken hold in the United States at record levels. Obviously, removing the social stigma might find more people turning to recovery. Educating the public that opioid dependency is a medical condition and not a moral lapse would work toward that end. In the meantime, however, a medical clinic in Las Vegas is reaching out to those struggling with the dependency to let them know they do not have to suffer alone and that there are ways to beat the addiction with a revolutionary drug now available for opioid addiction.
The drug, Suboxone, manufactured by Reckitt Benkiser, is the first opioid medication for use in a physician's office and for dispensing in a prescription like any medications for home tratment. It effectively masks any withdrawal symptoms when taken in the correct dosage. Suboxone also has its own built-in defense against abuse. Taken in the appropriate dosage as directed by a suboxone certified physician, orally under the tongue, the drug's main ingredient, buprenoprhine, suppresses the symptoms of opioid withdrawal and craving. However, if the patient attempts to misuse the drug by crushing, snorting or injection, another ingredient, naloxone, reduces the effect of the buprenorphine and brings on full withdrawal symptoms.
