One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for people in Stockholm who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to dispense certain medications to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low doses however, the individual does not feel high but also does not have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are alternative choices to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 monthly for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. A person taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that 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 shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
