Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Berclair who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only distributed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can stay off drugs and not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first conceived and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would ideally include actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they want to take, to also work with substance abuse counselors to integrate other types of behavioral therapy and life repair programs into their course of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
