Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Napoleon, OH.

One of the out-patient treatment alternatives for people in Napoleon battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low enough doses the client does not experience high feelings but also doesn't have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this sole purpose, but there are other choices currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be given in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 a month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and costs around $450 /month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual 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.
