One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Paris Crossing who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to administer specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. In low doses the client doesn't experience being high and also does not have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this reason, but there are other options to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the drug, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that can only be given in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 per month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs around $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opiate 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, it prevents an individual 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.
