Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Delmont who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which provides more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can focus and stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally include actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine can also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it can be misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of substance abuse counselors to integrate other types of behavioral therapy and life repair actions into their plan of rehabilitation to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
