Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Trenton who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies more people with access to this type of opiate 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 reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs as well as not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally include actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they'd like to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to include other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their plan of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
