Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Piseco, NY.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Piseco battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to give certain medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. In low enough doses the user does not experience being high and also doesn't experience severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this purpose, but there are a few more choices to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that is only be given in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 monthly for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced about $450 per month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
