One of the outpatient rehab options for people in San Simon who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioids also and are addiction. With low enough doses the individual doesn't experience high feelings but also does not have intense cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this purpose, but there are a few more options currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 a month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug which reverses the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional drug used 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 drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
