One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Hillsboro struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to give certain medications to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low enough amounts however, the client doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't experience intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are other options currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
