One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Brooten 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 that are opioids themselves and are addictive. With low doses the user doesn't experience being high and also doesn't experience acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this purpose, but there are a few more options to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars /month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced around $450 a month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opiate 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, it prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
