One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Hooper who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. In low doses the user doesn't experience being high and also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars a month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. Someone taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
