Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Kindred, ND.

One of the outpatient treatment options for individuals in Kindred who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioids also and are addictive. With low amounts however, the individual does not experience being high and also doesn't experience severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which can only be dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately $300 a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. A person 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 every day, and is priced around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which 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 shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
