Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Hallsburg, TX.

One of the out-patient rehab options for clients in Hallsburg battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioids also and are addictive. With low doses the client does not experience high feelings but also does not have intense cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are other options to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is approximately one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which can only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about just under $300 /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs about $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, which 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 a month.
