Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Osage City who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies more people with access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs and 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 primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally involve actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger comprehensive plan.
Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes misused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their plan of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
