Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Sagamore Beach, MA.

One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Sagamore Beach who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low enough doses the client does not experience being high but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this reason, but there are a few more choices to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to administer the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 /month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced about $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
