Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Opolis, KS.

One of the outpatient treatment options for clients in Opolis who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioids also and are addiction. In low amounts the individual does not experience high feelings and also does not experience severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more choices currently to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be given in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars /month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. An individual taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug 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 anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
