Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Switz City, IN.

One of the out-patient treatment options for people in Switz City who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low doses the user doesn't experience being high but also does not experience intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this purpose, but there are other options to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be dispensed in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
