Buprenorphine is used in what is referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Clyde Hill who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is usually only administered in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices which gives more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is administered in recovery it can help individuals who are going through the intense withdrawal symptoms and cravings brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and implemented, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a "whole-patient" approach that would ideally incorporate actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a bigger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine can also produce some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is sometimes misused. For this reason it is important for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they'd like to take, to also enlist the help of addiction counselors to include other methods of substance abuse therapy and life repair actions into their plan of rehabilitation to ensure they are not at risk of relapse.
