Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Lititz who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which gives easier access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery 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 participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would also incorporate actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine will also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes abused. This is another reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to integrate other forms of behavioral therapy and self-help programs into their plan of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
