One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for people in Fowlerville who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to administer certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioids also and are addiction. In low amounts however, the individual does not experience high feelings but also does not have acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this purpose, but there are alternative options to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily 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 unlike Methadone that can only be administered in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 a month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a drug that reverses the effects of opioids. Someone taking this version of the drug, AKA 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 around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
