Any Drug Treatment Programs in Auburn Hills, Michigan That Make Use of Buprenorphine Instead of Methadone?

Question by arriana dn: Any drug treatment programs in Auburn Hills, Michigan that make use of buprenorphine instead of methadone?
I just read somewhere that it only takes one injection of buprenorphine and that’s enough to last for 6 weeks. The article also stated that buprenorphine is an appealing alternative to methadone. My sister is about to undergo drug treatment, and I just wanted to know if there are any drug treatment programs in Auburn Hills that make use of this drug.
