Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Bonner, MT.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for clients in Bonner battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to give certain medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. With low enough amounts however, the individual does not experience being high but also does not have severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options to choose from.

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