Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Freeman, MO.

One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Freeman who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioids themselves and are addictive. With low amounts however, the client doesn't experience high feelings but also does not have acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this sole purpose, but there are other options currently to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to dispense the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be given in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around just under $300 a month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. A person taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't 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 an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
