One of the outpatient rehab options for individuals in Keytesville battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to give specific meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are addiction. In low doses the user does not experience high feelings but also does not have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this purpose, but there are alternative choices to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that is only be given in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 a month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this formulation, also known as 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 another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
