Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Kingston, NY.

One of the out-patient treatment options for people in Kingston battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addictive. With low enough doses the client doesn't experience high feelings and also does not have severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are other choices to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is around $150 per 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 administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. Someone consuming 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 is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, 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 shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
