Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Forest Falls, CA.

One of the out-patient treatment options for individuals in Forest Falls battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to give certain meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based also and are habit forming. With low doses the user does not experience high feelings and also does not experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this sole purpose, but there are other choices to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be dispensed in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around $300.00 monthly for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. 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 costs approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't 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 an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
