Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Morrice, MI.

One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in Morrice battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to give specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addictive. With low enough doses however, the user doesn't feel high and also doesn't experience intense cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are a few more choices currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to administer the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is about under $200 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 is only be dispensed in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual 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 costs around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
