Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Jasonville, IN.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Jasonville who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to administer specific medications to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low enough doses however, the individual doesn't feel high but also doesn't have severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are other choices currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 a month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. A person consuming this version of the drug, 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 about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opioid 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, the drug prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
