Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Poland, ME.

One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for individuals in Poland struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to administer specific medications to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low amounts the individual does not experience high feelings but also does not experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to dispense the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be given in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. A person consuming this formulation, also known as 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 is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience being 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.
