Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Caspian, MI.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Caspian who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which provides more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically incorporate actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger comprehensive recovery plan.

Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they want to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy and life repair programs into their course of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
