One of the out-patient rehab options for clients in Fagus who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to dispense certain medications to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addictive. In low enough amounts however, the user doesn't experience being high and also does not have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are other options currently to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 per month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. A person consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
