Few Opiate Addicts Receive Buprenorphine (Suboxone, Subutex) ? ?Wonder Drug? for Heroin, Vicodin, Hydrocodone, Percocet, Oxycontin Addiction
New York, NY (PRWEB) July 19, 2006
Buprenorphine (Suboxone, Subutex), the medication federally approved in 2002 to treat opiate addiction is barely reaching its audience of addicted people. Most with pain killer and heroin addiction do not even know it exists, and few NYC physicians are qualified to prescribe it. http://www.suboxone-treatment-newyork.com
“Of the 75,559 physicians licensed to practice in New York State, only 398 are listed with the government as credentialed to use buprenorphine – that’s a pathetically low 0.52% of physicians”, says Stephen Gilman, M.D., one of NYC’s most respected experts on addiction treatment. “It’s always been a problem that most physicians are frightened of treating addicted patients, but now these MD’s don’t even know where to send these patients.”
