Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Depauville, NY.

One of the outpatient treatment options for people in Depauville battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to give specific meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low doses the client doesn't experience being high and also does not experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this purpose, but there are other options currently to pick from.

Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is about under $200 per 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 dispensed in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and costs about $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
