One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for clients in Mariah Hill who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low enough amounts the individual doesn't experience high feelings and also does not experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are alternative choices to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be administered in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around just under $300 a month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug which blocks the effects of opiates. A person consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
