Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Fowlerton who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered by qualifying doctors which gives more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in recovery it can help individuals who are experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs and not participate in typical drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first formed 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 also incorporate actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a larger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine can also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. This is another reason it is highly suggested that anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the treatment route they prefer to take, to also receive help from addiction counselors to integrate other methods of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their course of rehabilitation to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
