Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment referred to as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for people in Woodbranch who are dependent to opoids such as prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike 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 easier access to this type of opiate 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 works to manage and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can easier detox and stay off drugs and not carry out harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first formed and put into action, it wasn't meant to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would ideally include actual therapy practices for opioid dependency and addiction. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a larger comprehensive treatment plan.
Buprenorphine might also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiates so it can be abused. For this reason it is important for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they prefer to take, to also work with addiction counselors to include other forms of substance abuse therapy and life repair programs into their plan of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
