One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Horton who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low amounts however, the user does not experience being high but also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this purpose, but there are alternative choices currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 /month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug that 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 daily, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
