Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Wyoming who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which provides more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived 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 incorporate actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly misused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they'd like to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of substance abuse therapy and life repair programs into their course of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
