Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Abiquiu, NM.

One of the outpatient rehab options for individuals in Abiquiu who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to dispense specific medications to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low doses however, the client doesn't experience being high but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this reason, but there are other options to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which can only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars a month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and costs around $450 /month. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
