Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Beulah who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which gives easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can focus and stay off drugs as well as not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would ideally include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to incorporate other forms of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their plan of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
