One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Gideon who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to dispense specific medications to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low amounts the user doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't experience severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this purpose, but there are other options currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be dispensed in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars monthly for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opioids. Someone consuming 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 is priced about $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
