Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Fortine, MT.

Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Fortine who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides easier access to this form of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps 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 idea was first conceived and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically incorporate actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger comprehensive treatment plan.

Buprenorphine can also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they'd like to take, to also receive help from professional addiction counselors to include other forms of behavioral therapy and life repair programs into their plan of recovery so that they feel confident about recovery.
