Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Big Bar, CA.

One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for individuals in Big Bar who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low enough doses however, the user doesn't experience being high but also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this reason, but there are a few more choices to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which can only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars /month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
