Dopamine and Opioid Addiction: The Role of Suboxone in Recovery

Why does opioid addiction have such a powerful grip on the brain? In this episode, Dr. Mark Leeds unravels the intricate connection between dopamine and opioid addiction. He explains how opioid use hijacks the brain's reward system, flooding it with dopamine and leading to a cycle of dependency. But there's hope. Dr. Leeds dives into the mechanics of Suboxone, a medication that helps restore dopamine balance and supports recovery.
He sheds light on why tapering off Suboxone is crucial and offers practical advice on supplements and medications that can ease withdrawal symptoms. For anyone battling opioid addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with valuable insights into how the brain can heal over time with the right treatment and support.
