Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Millsboro who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which provides more people with access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can focus and stay off drugs and not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would also involve actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they want to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to incorporate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of treatment so that they are not at risk of relapse.
