Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Paris, OH.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Paris who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. With low amounts the user does not feel high and also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this reason, but there are a few more options to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be administered in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about just under $300 a month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced about $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
