Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Durant, FL.

One of the out-patient treatment alternatives for individuals in Durant battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low amounts however, the user doesn't experience high feelings and also does not experience severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are other choices to select from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which can only be given in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars a month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, AKA 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 about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
