Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Onawa 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 dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs and not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would also include actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger comprehensive plan.
Buprenorphine might also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly misused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they want to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to include other types of substance abuse therapy and self-help programs into their course of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
