Houston Suboxone Doctor for Opiate or Pain Killer Addiction Treatment and Recovery

Here is what to expect during your recovery process at the Mind and Body Clinic:

Detox Consultation:
Your initial visit, the detox consultation, will be a caring and comprehensive interview.

If indicated, Suboxone treatment can be started right away. Once started, you will be carefully monitored during the detox process.  For the first 24 hours your physician will be in touch with you by phone.

Stabilization Phase:
Next, you will be evaluated within 1 week to determine the monthly stabilization dose.

Each session during and after stabilization will be dedicated to exploring the underlying factors that led to the addiction.  Frequently, patients who have substance dependence, have an underlying psychiatric condition that led to the addiction.  These conditions, if untreated, can most likely lead to relapse.

Now, your drug-free life turns to preventing a relapse.  A relapse prevention program, along with ongoing support is the long-term solution.  It is important that your treatment with Suboxone is maintained according to your individual needs to help prevent relapse.  If you have any concerns, you are instructed to make immediate contact with us to help avoid any relapse issues.

*Sublocade is indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe opioid use disorder after being stable on Buprenorphine-containing meds. It Is once/ month subcutaneous injection. It is a good alternative to taking the daily oral meds and helps prevent relapse.

*Some patients reported that they have used it to slowly wean off Suboxone/Zubsolv. 

*Insurance sometimes cover the injection. The cash price  $2,020 or more for the 300 or 100 mg injection.

SUBLOCADE should be used as part of a complete treatment plan that includes counseling and psychosocial support.
