Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Corrales who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which provides easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs as well as not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea 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 typically include actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive recovery plan.
Buprenorphine can also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is commonly misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to include other forms of behavioral therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their plan of rehabilitation to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
