Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - New Cambria, KS.

One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in New Cambria who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to dispense certain medications to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addictive. In low amounts the user doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this purpose, but there are other options currently to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be given in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 monthly for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, 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.
