Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Lucas who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs and not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they prefer to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to include other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of treatment to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
