Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Dowling who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally involve actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine will also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their plan of treatment so that they are not at risk of relapse.
