Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Joppa, MD.

One of the outpatient rehab options for people in Joppa who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low amounts the user doesn't experience high feelings but also does not experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this purpose, but there are other options to pick from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that can only be given in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and costs around $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't 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 someone from feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
