Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Atomic City, ID.

One of the out-patient treatment options for individuals in Atomic City battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give specific medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are addiction. With low doses the client does not experience being high and also does not have severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this purpose, but there are a few more choices currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be dispensed in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 a month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opioids. An individual taking this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and costs around $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
