Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Luray, SC.

One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Luray who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low doses the individual does not experience high feelings and also doesn't experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this reason, but there are other choices currently to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is about $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be given in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around $300.00 a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced around $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
