Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Taylor who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike 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 administered 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 associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs as well as not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would ideally incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine can also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they want to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
