Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Yreka, CA.

One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Yreka who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low doses however, the client doesn't experience high feelings but also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are other choices to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately $150 monthly. 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 well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. An individual taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and costs around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
