Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - New Martinsville, WV.

One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for clients in New Martinsville struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to administer certain medications to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioids also and are addiction. In low doses the user doesn't experience high feelings and also does not have acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this reason, but there are alternative options to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, also known as 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 is priced around $450 per month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
