Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Tower City, ND.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for clients in Tower City who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to give specific meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low amounts the user does not feel high and also doesn't have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this sole purpose, but there are other options currently to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is about $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be given in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned 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 an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
