Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Karlsruhe, ND.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Karlsruhe battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to give specific medications to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low amounts however, the client doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't experience severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are alternative choices to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be given in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars a month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and costs around $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone 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 /month.
