Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Roscommon 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 strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which provides easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs and not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would typically include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine can also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they want to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to incorporate other forms of substance abuse therapy and life repair actions into their plan of treatment to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
