Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Stoughton, MA.

One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for clients in Stoughton who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioids also and are addictive. With low enough doses however, the individual doesn't experience being high and also does not have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this reason, but there are a few more options to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost 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 every other day. But unlike Methadone that is only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around $300 monthly for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opiates. A person consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
