One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Adin who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low enough amounts the client does not experience high feelings but also does not have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this reason, but there are other options to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which can only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug 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 monthly.
