Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Klamath River, CA.

One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for people in Klamath River who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense certain medications to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low enough amounts the individual doesn't feel high and also does not experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this purpose, but there are other options to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be dispensed in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around just under $300 /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opiate 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 being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
