One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for individuals in Federal Dam who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low doses however, the individual does not feel high but also doesn't have severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300 /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't 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 an individual from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
