Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Tripp, SD.

One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for clients in Tripp who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. With low amounts the client doesn't experience being high and also does not experience intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this reason, but there are other choices to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be administered in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars per month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, also known as 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 around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
