One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for clients in Cooksville who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low amounts the client does not feel high and also doesn't experience severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are other options to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is about $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars /month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. An individual taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs about $450 per month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opioid 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 someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
