Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Northfork, WV.

One of the outpatient treatment options for clients in Northfork struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioids also and are addiction. With low enough amounts the user doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this purpose, but there are other options to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be given in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 monthly for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs about $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
