One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Lake Zurich struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to give specific medications to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low enough amounts the client doesn't feel high and also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this reason, but there are other choices currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered 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 version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, also known as 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 is priced about $450 per month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
