-- In his practice in Las Vegas, Nevada, Dr. James Eells sees many drug dependence cases. As part of a strategy to combat these challenging cases, he has come to rely on the therapeutic benefits of a drug called Suboxone. This medication, a combination of the chemicals buprenorphine and naloxone, has shown great potential in the treatment of opioid dependence in patients. “Suboxone can be a very useful tool in the treatment of dependence on short-acting opioids like heroin or some painkillers,” Dr. Eells says. “As part of a comprehensive treatment approach, this medication is ideal for managing withdrawal symptoms and for gradually reducing dependence in approved patients.”
“Suboxone works by replacing the illicit drug in the human body, using a carefully-controlled dosage to ease withdrawal and to slowly wean the patient off the drug he or she is dependent on,” Dr. Eells explains. “This novel medication is safe and effective, reducing those difficult-to-manage cravings without dangerous side effects.” Dr. Eells reports great success in using this medication to help his patients with opioid addictions, giving him a useful tool that he can use in his practice as one of his many therapeutic treatment options.
Suboxone is used along with counseling and psychosocial support mechanisms to help beat opioid dependence. “This medication can be used for both induction therapy and for maintenance of opioid dependence cases in patients,” Dr. Eells adds. “Suboxone is perfect for starting down the road toward an addiction-free life, and it can also be used to transition patients to daily maintenance regimens, helping them to conquer the cravings behind their dependence.” Learn more about Dr. Eells here.
