Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Menemsha who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which gives more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can easier detox and stay off drugs and not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would typically include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine might also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be abused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of substance abuse counselors to incorporate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their plan of treatment to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
