Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Dorr who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies more people with access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs and not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine will also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be abused. For this reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their plan of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
