Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Holland, MO.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Holland who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to give certain meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are addiction. With low enough amounts the user doesn't experience high feelings and also does not have acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more choices currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opioids. An individual taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
