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

One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Moore who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low enough doses the client does not experience high feelings and also doesn't experience intense cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this sole purpose, but there are other options to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be given in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone 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 daily, and is priced approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that 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 in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
