One of the out-patient rehab options for clients in Lower Peach Tree struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioids also and are addictive. With low doses the client doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be given in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around $300 a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual taking 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 every day, and is priced around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that 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 injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
