One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Bucklin who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low doses the client does not experience high feelings but also doesn't experience intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this reason, but there are other options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars per month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. An individual taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it 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 monthly.
