One of the out-patient rehab options for clients in Percival who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids themselves and are habit forming. With low enough doses the individual doesn't feel high but also doesn't experience acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this purpose, but there are other options to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around just under $300 /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this version of the drug, also known as 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 is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
