One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for individuals in Pana who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer specific medications to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low enough amounts the user doesn't feel high and also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this reason, but there are other options to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be dispensed in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 monthly for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug which reverses the effects of opioids. A person taking this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
