Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Brocton, IL.

One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Brocton struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low enough doses the client doesn't experience high feelings but also does not experience intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
