Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Bannock, OH.

One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Bannock who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to dispense specific medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low enough doses however, the client does not experience being high but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be administered in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. Someone taking 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 is also taken every day, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
