Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Inverness who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first conceived and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would typically incorporate actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine will also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they prefer to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to include other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their plan of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
