Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in New Matamoras who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which gives more people with access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and put into action, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment 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 part of a bigger comprehensive treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they want to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to include other types of substance abuse therapy and self-help actions into their plan of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
