One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for individuals in Warba struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low enough doses the client does not feel high and also does not experience intense cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this purpose, but there are other choices to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 monthly for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
