Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Argenta, IL.

One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for individuals in Argenta who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to dispense specific meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low doses the client does not experience being high but also does not have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are other options currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the drug, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be administered in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars per month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming 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 about $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
