Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Cora, WY.

One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Cora who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to give certain medications to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low doses the client does not feel high and also does not have severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that is only be administered in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars monthly for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. A person taking 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 is priced around $450 per month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
