Services include but are not limited to comprehensive and routine wellness visits; sick visits, medication consultation, prescription writing and refills; dermatology (skincare), nutrition counseling; chronic care management, diabetic management, blood pressure management, and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder.
Telehealthcare providers meet their patients through video calls and phone calls through the use of technology. After meeting with the patients, the provider will prescribe the medication electronically to the patient’s pharmacy.
You can ask for the subscription in paper form, and your pharmacy will send it to you.
Opioids drugs are made from seeds that are naturally found in poppy flowers. Opiates are used for purposes such as managing pain. Patients who become dependent or addicted to opioids may require a combination of medication-assisted treatment (MAT), counseling, and behavior therapy. Medication-assisted treatment can be done with FDA approved buprenorphine-naloxone.
Buprenorphine-naloxone can be found in the market under the brand name Suboxone. It is an FDA approved medicine that is used in the treatment of opioid addiction. Suboxone plays a vital role in minimizing withdrawal symptoms that make it difficult for opioid addicts to stop using opioids. Usually, the patient takes a fixed dose of Suboxone as prescribed by their healthcare practitioner.
