Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Swifton, AR.

One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for people in Swifton battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to administer specific meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low doses however, the user does not feel high but also does not have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options to pick from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around under $200 per 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 given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 /month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this version of the drug, AKA 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 around $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
