Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Adona, AR.

One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for clients in Adona who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low enough amounts the user does not experience being high and also does not experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this reason, but there are other choices currently to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that can only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and is priced around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
