Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Maple City who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides easier access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help someone who is experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs and not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would ideally involve actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine can also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they want to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to integrate other methods of substance abuse therapy and life repair programs into their course of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
