Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Matlock who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs and not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first formed and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would typically incorporate actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine can also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they prefer to take, to also work with addiction counselors to integrate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of treatment so that they are not at risk of relapse.
