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

One of the outpatient rehab options for people in Plainfield who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based also and are habit forming. With low enough doses however, the user doesn't experience high feelings but also doesn't experience intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are a few more options currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which can only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and is not 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 a person from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
