Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Gene Autry who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides more people with access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can easier detox and stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first envisioned and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would ideally include actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine will also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be abused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they'd like to take, to also receive help from substance abuse counselors to include other types of behavioral therapy and self-help actions into their course of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
