One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for individuals in Romeo who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to administer certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioids also and are addiction. In low enough doses however, the client doesn't experience high feelings and also does not experience intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be given in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 monthly for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. 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 experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
