Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Tsaile, AZ.

One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for people in Tsaile who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to give certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. With low amounts the user does not feel high and also does not experience intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this reason, but there are alternative choices currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is around 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 different from Methadone that can only be administered in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300 per month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type 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 more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced about $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that 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 injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
