One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Beltrami who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to dispense specific medications to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. With low enough amounts however, the user doesn't feel high and also doesn't have severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to dispense the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately 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 different from Methadone which can only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around just under $300 per month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this formulation, 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 about $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone 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 /month.
