Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Dryden, MI.

One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for individuals in Dryden who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low enough amounts the user does not experience high feelings but also doesn't experience acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this purpose, but there are other choices to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be given in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 /month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel 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 medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
