One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for people in Wurtland who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to administer certain medications to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based also and are habit forming. With low enough doses however, the user doesn't experience high feelings and also does not have severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this sole purpose, but there are other choices to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. 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 price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. An individual 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 is also taken on a daily basis, and costs approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
