Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Royal Oak who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs and not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would also incorporate actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine can also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be misused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they want to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
