Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Lane, KS.

One of the out-patient treatment options for people in Lane who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to give certain medications to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. With low doses however, the individual doesn't feel high and also does not experience intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this purpose, but there are other choices to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 /month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. Someone 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 is also taken every day, and is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
