Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Moline Acres who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which provides more people with access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help someone who is experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs as well as not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would typically incorporate actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes misused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they'd like to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to integrate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
