Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - New Holland, OH.

One of the out-patient rehab options for people in New Holland struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to give certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low enough amounts however, the individual doesn't feel high but also doesn't have acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are alternative choices to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 per month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
