Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Morton, MN.

One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for individuals in Morton struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to administer specific medications to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. In low enough amounts the client doesn't experience being high but also does not experience severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this reason, but there are other choices to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be given in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. An individual taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
