Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Abie, NE.

One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for clients in Abie struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are addiction. With low doses the individual doesn't experience being high and also doesn't experience acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this purpose, but there are alternative choices 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, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that is only be administered in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about $300.00 /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. An individual consuming 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 too is taken every day, and is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
