Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Mount Clemens, MI.

One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for clients in Mount Clemens who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioids themselves and are addictive. With low amounts the user doesn't experience being high but also does not have severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this reason, but there are other choices currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in structured 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 version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
