One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for individuals in Marysville struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low enough amounts the user does not experience being high and also doesn't experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this sole purpose, but there are other options currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that can only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
