Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Manchester, CT.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Manchester who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense specific medications to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioids themselves and are habit forming. With low enough amounts the user doesn't feel high and also doesn't have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this purpose, but there are other options currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be dispensed in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. An individual taking this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced about $450 /month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opiate 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, it prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
