One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for individuals in Willits who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to administer specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low enough amounts the individual doesn't experience being high and also does not experience acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this reason, but there are alternative choices to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be administered in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars /month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opiates. A person taking this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced about $450 /month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
