Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Almelund 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 dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs as well as not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would also include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger comprehensive plan.
Buprenorphine will also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is commonly misused. For this reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they want to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to incorporate other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their plan of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
