One of the out-patient treatment options for individuals in Menan struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give specific medications to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low doses the individual does not experience high feelings but also does not experience severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this purpose, but there are alternative choices currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 per month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced about $450 a month. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
