Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Nicoma Park who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the individual can stay off drugs and not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger comprehensive plan.
Buprenorphine can also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly abused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help actions into their course of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
