Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Bainville who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would also incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger comprehensive treatment plan.
Buprenorphine will also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they prefer to take, to also work with addiction counselors to incorporate other types of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their course of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
