One of the outpatient treatment options for individuals in Rattan struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low doses the individual doesn't experience being high but also doesn't experience acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this purpose, but there are other choices to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be given in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about $300.00 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opiates. A person consuming this version of the drug, 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 about $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned 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 an individual from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
