Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Swansboro who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would also incorporate actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine can also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it can be abused. This is another reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also receive help from substance abuse counselors to integrate other methods of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
