Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Henrieville, UT.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for clients in Henrieville battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low enough amounts however, the client does not experience high feelings and also does not have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately 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 that can only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. A person taking this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is 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 an individual from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
