Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Cortland 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 administered in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the person 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 envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically involve actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine might also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to incorporate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their plan of rehabilitation to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
