Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Leroy 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 strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can easier detox and stay off drugs and not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would typically include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine can also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they'd like to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to incorporate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of rehabilitation so that they feel confident about recovery.
