One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in Represa struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low enough amounts however, the user doesn't experience high feelings but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is around $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 a month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. An individual 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 costs approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
