Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Cal Nev Ari, NV.

One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Cal Nev Ari battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. With low enough doses the individual doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't have severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this purpose, but there are other options currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which can only be administered in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 /month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual taking this version of the drug, AKA 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 costs approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which 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 anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
