Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Far Rockaway who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized 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 minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first conceived and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is commonly misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they want to take, to also enlist the help of substance abuse counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy and self-help actions into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
