What to ask before you book in Long Beach

  1. Do you administer the injection in office, or only prescribe? Some prescribers write the script and send patients elsewhere for administration. That adds a step and a separate appointment.
  2. Have I been opioid-free long enough? 7 to 10 days minimum for short-acting opioids, longer for methadone or Sublocade. The naloxone challenge test is one way to confirm before injecting.
  3. Do you accept my insurance, and is prior authorization required? Vivitrol bills under HCPCS J2315. Most commercial plans require prior auth.
  4. What does follow-up look like? Vivitrol works as one piece of a treatment plan. Counseling, drug screens, and adherence support all matter for outcomes.
  5. What if I miss a dose? Vivitrol's effective window is roughly 28 days. After that, opioid receptors come back online quickly. Plan for what happens if you cannot get to the next appointment on time.
