Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Lyons, IN.

One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in Lyons who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to administer certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low doses the user doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this reason, but there are alternative choices currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars per month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced about $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
