Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Fowlerville 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 distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which provides easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine will also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes abused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to incorporate other forms of behavioral therapy and self-help programs into their course of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
