Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Bridger, MT.

One of the out-patient treatment alternatives for clients in Bridger who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to dispense specific medications to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low enough amounts the client doesn't experience being high but also doesn't experience intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. 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 that can only be given in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars per month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. A person consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
