Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Tacna who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Unlike 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 dispensed in doctor's offices which provides more people with access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would typically include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine will also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of substance abuse counselors to integrate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of rehabilitation so that they feel confident about recovery.
