One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in Flinthill who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low amounts the user does not experience being high but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this purpose, but there are a few more options to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that is 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 about three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. A person taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs around $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
