Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Centrahoma, OK.

One of the out-patient treatment options for clients in Centrahoma who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. With low doses however, the user doesn't experience being high but also does not have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the drug, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be given in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 /month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this version of the drug, AKA 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 another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
