Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Heltonville, IN.

One of the out-patient treatment alternatives for clients in Heltonville who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addictive. In low amounts the user does not experience being high and also does not experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be given in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 /month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced around $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
