Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Huntley, WY.

One of the out-patient treatment alternatives for individuals in Huntley who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to dispense certain medications to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low amounts the user doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to administer the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is approximately one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be administered in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 monthly for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. An individual taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this medication 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 anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
