One of the out-patient rehab options for individuals in Corinna struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low amounts however, the user doesn't experience being high but also doesn't have acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are alternative options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which can only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 a month for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opiates. 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 daily, and is priced around $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone 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 monthly.
