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

One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in Nisula battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to administer specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low enough doses the client does not experience being high and also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this sole purpose, but there are alternative choices to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars per month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced about $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone 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 a month.
