Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Newnan, GA.

One of the outpatient rehab options for people in Newnan who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to administer certain medications to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioids also and are addictive. In low enough amounts the individual does not feel high but also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this purpose, but there are other options currently to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars a month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. An individual taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced around $450 a month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
