One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for clients in Roland who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low enough doses the individual does not feel high but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this sole purpose, but there are other options to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around just under $300 monthly for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and costs around $450 per 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 opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
