Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Parker Dam, CA.

One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Parker Dam who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids also and are addiction. With low amounts the user does not experience being high and also doesn't experience severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this purpose, but there are other choices to pick from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to administer the drug, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be dispensed in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, also known as 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 around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
