Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Bucklin who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which supplies more people with access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce 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 concept was first envisioned and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would typically incorporate actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger comprehensive plan.
Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they'd like to take, to also receive help from substance abuse counselors to incorporate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
