Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Montier who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first conceived and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would typically involve actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly abused. This is another reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they prefer to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of substance abuse therapy and self-help programs into their plan of treatment to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
