Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Kiana 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 in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs and not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally incorporate actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine will also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they'd like to take, to also receive help from substance abuse counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
