Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Mauldin who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Not like Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which gives easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs as well as not engage in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first realized and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would typically involve actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive treatment plan.
Buprenorphine can also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be abused. For this reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of substance abuse counselors to include other methods of behavioral therapy and life repair programs into their plan of treatment so that they feel confident about recovery.
