One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Ouzinkie who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to give specific medications to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low enough doses the individual does not experience being high but also does not experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this reason, but there are other options currently to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the drug, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which can only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel 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 used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
