One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for people in Braham who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioids also and are addictive. With low amounts the user doesn't feel high but also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this reason, but there are other options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be given in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars per month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
