One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for clients in Dateland who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based also and are habit forming. In low doses the user doesn't experience being high and also does not have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this sole purpose, but there are a few more choices currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be administered in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. Someone consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult 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 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication 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 shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
