Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Teigen, MT.

One of the outpatient rehab options for people in Teigen who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low enough amounts the individual does not feel high but also doesn't have severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are alternative choices to choose from.

Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which can only be administered in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about $300.00 /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced around $450 a month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
