Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Tallmansville who are opiate dependent to heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be dispensed in strictly controlled clinics, Buprenorphine may be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides more people with access to this type of opiate treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine works to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs as well as not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first formed and implemented, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would typically include actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one part of a larger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it is commonly misused. This is another reason it is crucial for anyone thinking about medication assisted treatment as the recovery method they prefer to take, to also receive help from substance abuse counselors to incorporate other forms of substance abuse therapy & counseling and self-help programs into their course of recovery so that they are not at risk of relapse.
