One of the outpatient rehab options for individuals in Anaheim Hills struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to give specific medications to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low enough doses however, the client does not experience being high but also does not experience severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense 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 med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars per month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. Someone 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 around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
