Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Trumann, AR.

One of the outpatient treatment options for individuals in Trumann struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense specific medications to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. With low enough amounts the individual doesn't experience high feelings but also does not experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this sole purpose, but there are other options to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which can only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. Someone 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 too is taken every day, and is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
