One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for people in Adair who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. With low enough doses the client does not experience high feelings and also doesn't have intense cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are other choices currently to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be dispensed in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars per month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. 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 every day, and is priced about $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which 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 in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
