One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for people in Mc Clave struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to give certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. In low enough amounts however, the individual does not experience high feelings and also does not have acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this reason, but there are alternative options to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which can only be dispensed in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately $300 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug which reverses 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 about $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
