Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Jesse, WV.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for clients in Jesse who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to give specific medications to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low amounts the client does not experience high feelings and also does not experience intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this purpose, but there are alternative options currently to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which can only be administered in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 per month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual taking this formulation, 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 daily, and is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's 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 someone from feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
