Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Longville, MN.

One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for clients in Longville who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to give specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioids also and are addiction. With low amounts however, the user does not feel high but also doesn't experience severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this reason, but there are alternative options to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300 monthly for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person 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 daily, and is priced about $450 per month. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
