Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Fultonville, NY.

One of the outpatient rehab options for people in Fultonville who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to administer certain medications to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low doses however, the individual doesn't experience being high but also does not have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this reason, but there are other options currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be administered in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around $300 monthly for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, 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 per month.
