Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Manning, ND.

One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for clients in Manning struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to give specific medications to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids also and are addictive. In low enough doses however, the client doesn't experience being high and also doesn't experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this purpose, but there are other options currently to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be given in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 per month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
