Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Montrose, NY.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Montrose who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to dispense specific medications to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low enough amounts the individual does not experience high feelings and also does not experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this sole purpose, but there are other options currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to administer the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that is only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opioids. A person taking this formulation, 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 costs about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate 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, it prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
