Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Wantagh 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 can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can focus and stay off drugs and not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned 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 also involve actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to incorporate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their plan of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
