One of the out-patient rehab options for individuals in Fairbury struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to dispense certain medications to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. In low doses however, the individual does not experience high feelings but also does not have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this sole purpose, but there are other options currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be given in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming 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 on a daily basis, and costs around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
