One of the outpatient treatment options for people in Solo who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense specific medications to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. In low enough amounts the individual does not experience high feelings but also doesn't experience acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this sole purpose, but there are other options to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be given in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 monthly for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
