One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in Arnoldsville who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are habit forming. With low enough amounts the user doesn't experience being high and also does not experience acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be dispensed in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars monthly 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. An individual taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
