Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Gilbert who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. 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 administered by qualifying doctors which provides more people with access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can easier detox and stay off drugs and not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would typically incorporate actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to incorporate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
