Outpatient Methadone Buprenorphine or Vivitrol - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Salkum, WA.

One of the out-patient rehab options for individuals in Salkum who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to dispense specific medications to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low amounts however, the client doesn't experience being high but also doesn't experience intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this purpose, but there are alternative options to choose from.

Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be dispensed in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 per month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced about $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
