Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Temple, TX.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Temple battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to give certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low enough amounts however, the user does not experience being high but also doesn't experience severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this reason, but there are alternative options currently to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which can only be given in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced about $450 a month. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
