Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Glendale who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which provides easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs as well as not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would also incorporate actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger comprehensive treatment plan.
Buprenorphine will also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they want to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to integrate other forms of substance abuse therapy and life repair actions into their plan of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
