Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Blanchester who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. 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 dispensed in doctor's offices which gives easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs as well as not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally include actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine will also produce the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they prefer to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to incorporate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their course of treatment to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
