Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Peru who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies more people with access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would also involve actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it can be abused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also receive help from substance abuse counselors to include other methods of behavioral therapy and self-help actions into their plan of rehabilitation so that they feel confident about recovery.
