Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Franklin, TX.

One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for people in Franklin struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to dispense specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low enough amounts however, the user doesn't feel high but also doesn't have acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars monthly for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
