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

One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Solsville who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to administer specific medications to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioids also and are habit forming. With low enough doses the user doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't experience severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this purpose, but there are a few more choices to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be dispensed in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. An individual taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and costs about $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
