One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for clients in Swan Valley who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to dispense specific meds to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low amounts however, the user doesn't feel high and also doesn't experience severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this purpose, but there are other choices to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opiates. Someone taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
