Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Desloge who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing 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 participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine can also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of substance abuse counselors to integrate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their plan of treatment to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
