Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Neptune, NJ.

One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Neptune struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioids also and are addictive. In low amounts the client does not experience being high but also doesn't have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this purpose, but there are other choices to select from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 per month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this version of the drug, also known as 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 an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, which 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 shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
