Tianeptine Use Recovery

Overview

Tianeptine is an atypical antidepressant originally developed for treating major depressive disorder. While legally prescribed in some countries, it has recently attracted attention in the United States due to its misuse potential. Tianeptine is known to produce effects similar to opioids, including euphoria, leading to its abuse as a recreational drug. It is often sold under various brand names, such as ZAZA, Pegasus, and others, and can be found in smoke shops and gas stations.

Although Tianeptine is not an opioid, its misuse can lead to dependence and associated challenges. Individuals who develop a dependence on Tianeptine may encounter significant difficulties during withdrawal.

INSPIRATION HEALTH TIANEPTINE TREATMENT PROGRAM

At Inspiration Health, we provide a comprehensive approach to managing Tianeptine use disorder, integrating medical management with personalized therapy. Our skilled team is well-versed in addressing the unique challenges associated with Tianeptine dependence.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for Tianeptine Use Disorder

When addressing tianeptine use disorder, we begin treatment with Lucemyra (lofexidine), a non-opioid medication designed to manage withdrawal symptoms without causing dependence. Lucemyra helps alleviate withdrawal symptoms by reducing norepinephrine levels, thus easing discomfort associated with withdrawal.

After the initial phase of treatment with Lucemyra, we transition our patients to Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) for long-term MAT. This transition is carefully managed to minimize discomfort and avoid precipitated withdrawal, which can occur due to tianeptine’s lingering effects in the body.

Lucemyra is typically used for the first few days of withdrawal, during which patients experience significant relief from symptoms. Following this initial period, Suboxone is introduced as the primary medication for ongoing treatment. Suboxone helps to stabilize the patient and reduce cravings, supporting long-term recovery and helping to prevent relapse.

In addition to Lucemyra and Suboxone, our medical team may prescribe other medications to manage specific withdrawal symptoms.

Counseling and Care Coordination for Tianeptine Use Disorder

Counseling is a vital part of our treatment program at Inspiration Health. Our licensed professional counselors offer individual, group, and family therapy sessions designed to address the underlying issues related to Tianeptine use disorder. We use a variety of therapeutic techniques, including:
