I Need to Find Substance Abuse Treatment Centers in Humble, Texas. How?

Question by divya 3xb: I need to find substance abuse treatment centers in Humble, Texas. How?
I have to do this because I’m writing a paper about prescription drug addiction. I figured it would be good to interview people who are dealing with this kind of thing on a daily basis.

Try looking for Narcotics Anonomus in your local area and i am sure that your local police station, university, or courthouse would have that kind of information because people who normally go are forced by the law.

I Need to Find Addiction Treatment Centers in Kennebunk, Maine. How?

Question by citlali a: I need to find addiction treatment centers in Kennebunk, Maine. How?
I’m especially interested in finding one that administers buprenorphine instead of methadone. I’ve heard that buprenorphine is better and that patients will be able to get off the medication easily, as opposed to methadone that usually becomes a life long regimen.

Answer by alexandria cd
I too have heard of the news that buprenorphine is more appealing than methadone. Do you have a loved one that will undergo treatment for drug addiction soon? Or are you just trying to get more information regarding buprenorphine? Anyway, the links that I have included below will help you find treatment centers and physicians that are registered to administer buprenorphine. Good luck!
