Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - New Goshen, IN.

One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in New Goshen who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to administer specific medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are habit forming. In low amounts however, the client doesn't experience high feelings and also does not experience intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options currently to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that can only be administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. Someone taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and costs approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opioid 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 an individual from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
