One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Jewell battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. With low amounts however, the client doesn't experience being high and also doesn't have severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are a few more choices to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about $150 per 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 can only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around $300.00 monthly for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and costs about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
