One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for people in Maple Lake struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low amounts the client does not experience being high but also doesn't have acute 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 opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to dispense the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is about $150 per month. 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 administered in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars a month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. 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 experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
