Buprenorphine is utilized in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Dyersburg 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 distributed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which supplies easier access to this form of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in recovery it can help someone who is going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would also incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger comprehensive recovery plan.
Buprenorphine can also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is sometimes misused. This is another reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they'd like to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy and life repair actions into their course of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
