Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Chapel Hill, NC.

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Chapel Hill 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 administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which provides easier access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would ideally involve actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing plan.

Buprenorphine will also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. For this reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they want to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to integrate other methods of behavioral therapy and self-help actions into their plan of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
