Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Bryantville who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and implemented, 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 therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger comprehensive recovery plan.
Buprenorphine will also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes misused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of substance abuse counselors to integrate other methods of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their plan of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
