Buprenorphine is utilized in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Monticello who are dependent to opoids such as heroin or prescription pain killers. Dissimilar to Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be 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 experiencing the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms brought on by opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to manage and reduce these withdrawal symptoms so that the person can focus and stay off drugs and not participate in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment concept was first envisioned and perpetuated, it wasn't intended to be a primary form of treatment but rather only part of a multi-faceted treatment plan that would ideally include actual rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing recovery plan.
Buprenorphine can also cause the euphoric "high" associated with other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. For this reason it is crucial for anyone deciding on medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to integrate other types of substance abuse therapy & counseling and life repair actions into their plan of recovery to ensure they feel confident about recovery.
