One of the out-patient treatment options for clients in Coffman Cove who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low doses however, the individual doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this reason, but there are a few more options currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be given in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 per month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, AKA 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 about $450 per month. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
