Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Viola who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which gives more people with access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and 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 treatment plan that would typically include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to integrate other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their course of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
