Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Cohagen, MT.

One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Cohagen who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to give certain medications to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioids also and are addictive. With low enough doses however, the client does not experience high feelings but also does not experience intense 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 opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 per month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. A person taking this version of the drug, 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 approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
