Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Rexville, NY.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Rexville battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to administer specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioids also and are addictive. With low enough amounts the individual doesn't feel high and also does not experience severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this purpose, but there are other options currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 a month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. 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 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.
