Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Claymont who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs as well as not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed 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 ideally include actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine might also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is commonly misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they want to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their plan of recovery so that they feel confident about recovery.
