Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Rehrersburg who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices which provides easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize 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 concept was first conceived and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would also involve actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine might also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to incorporate other types of substance abuse therapy and life repair programs into their course of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
