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

One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for individuals in Woodland who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to give specific meds to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low doses the individual doesn't feel high and also does not experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this purpose, but there are a few more choices currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be administered in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300 /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this version of the drug, 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 approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
