Houston Suboxone Doctor Gives 3 Reasons to Choose a Psychiatrist for Drug Addiction Treatment

Why choose a psychiatrist as the medical professional to treat your drug addiction?
Here are reasons why.
  1. A person becomes addicted to drugs for multiple reasons, and those reasons need to be uncovered and examined.  A psychiatrist will do this analysis.
  2. A psychiatrist knows what medicines to use, and if necessary, what medicines to mix in your recovery program.  For instance, ADHD is frequently associated with addictions, such as opiate addiction, and if that is treated along with another medicine to prevent withdrawals and cravings, then these medicines and their interactions need to be well understood.
  3. A psychiatrist specializes in behavior and psychosocial factors.  When on the road to recovering from addiction, your environment, family situation, your upbringing and other factors play an important role in your chances for recovering from an addiction.  As stated, a psychiatrist is aware of these dynamics and how to understand and address them in your treatment plan.
