One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for people in Cecilia who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to give certain meds to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioids also and are addiction. In low enough amounts the client does not experience being high but also doesn't experience acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this reason, but there are other choices currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 /month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
