One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Orderville struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to administer specific meds to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioid-based also and are habit forming. With low amounts however, the client doesn't feel high but also does not experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this sole purpose, but there are other options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 /month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug that 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 too is taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
