Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Mc Alisterville 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 administered in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help someone who is experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and diminish these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first realized and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would typically incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine can also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes abused. This is another reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment plan they'd like to take, to also work with addiction counselors to integrate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair programs into their plan of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
