Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Cavalier who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs as well as not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first conceived and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would typically involve actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine will also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly misused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they prefer to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy and self-help actions into their course of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
