Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Gilman who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help someone who is experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger comprehensive plan.
Buprenorphine can also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to include other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of treatment so that they are not at risk of relapse.
