Buprenorphine is used in what is known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Roma who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Dissimilar to 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 by qualifying doctors which supplies easier access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is utilized in treatment 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 focus and stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a multi-faceted approach that would ideally include actual therapy practices for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one component of a bigger all-encompassing treatment plan.
Buprenorphine can also bring about some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it is commonly abused. For this reason it is highly suggested that anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the treatment method they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to integrate other forms of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their plan of treatment so that they are not at risk of relapse.
