addiction recovery ebulletin buprenorphine relief
MAR. 22, 2019 – It’s been six years since Scott Pavek stopped using opioids. But he wanted out of his addiction long before he was able to get clean. “I just wanted … some relief from the cycle of using opioids, getting sick, finding ways to acquire more, and then doing the same thing over again,” Pavek said in an interview recently. Pavek said he was able to find that relief in a drug called buprenorphine. It’s a long-acting opioid that’s far less powerful than heroin or fentanyl. And it allows people with substance use disorder to stave off the symptoms of withdrawal.
