Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Auburn 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 administered in treatment it can help individuals who are going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would ideally incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine might also bring about the euphoric "high" associated with other opiates so it is sometimes abused. This is another reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery route they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to integrate other methods of behavioral therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their plan of recovery to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
