Buprenorphine is utilized in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Piney Fork who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. 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 by qualifying doctors which gives easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that they can focus and stay off drugs and not carry out typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first formed and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would also include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine can also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they want to take, to also work with professional addiction counselors to include other types of behavioral therapy and self-help actions into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
