One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Corunna who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to give specific medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. With low amounts however, the user does not feel high and also does not experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars monthly for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. An individual consuming 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 on a daily basis, and costs around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option 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 anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
