Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Hodgen who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which gives more people with access to this type of opiate 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 helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs as well as not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would typically incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger comprehensive plan.
Buprenorphine will also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes abused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to integrate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
