Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Cisne, IL.

One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for individuals in Cisne who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low amounts the individual does not experience high feelings but also doesn't experience severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this reason, but there are alternative options currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 a 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 is only be administered in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around just under $300 a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from feeling 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.
