Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Phlox, WI.

One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for individuals in Phlox who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to give certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioids also and are addictive. With low enough amounts however, the client does not feel high and also doesn't experience intense cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are alternative choices currently to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 monthly for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and costs about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
