One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in Eminence who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to administer specific medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low amounts however, the individual doesn't experience being high but also does not have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this reason, but there are other options currently to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opiates. Someone 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 around $450 per month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and is not 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 an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
