Buprenorphine Used in Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Canandaigua, NY.

Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Canandaigua who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which supplies more people with access to this type of treatment.

When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs as well as not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first formed and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would also incorporate actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger comprehensive recovery plan.

Buprenorphine might also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it can be misused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to integrate other forms of substance abuse therapy and self-help programs into their course of treatment to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
