Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Mayking, KY.

One of the out-patient rehab options for individuals in Mayking battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low enough amounts however, the individual does not experience high feelings but also doesn't have severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are other choices to pick from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that can only be given in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars a month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. An individual taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it 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.
