One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for clients in Hollansburg who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to give certain medications to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low doses however, the individual does not feel high and also doesn't experience acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this reason, but there are alternative choices to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be given in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
