Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Kalispell 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 only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would typically involve actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they'd like to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to incorporate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their plan of recovery so that they feel confident about recovery.
