One of the outpatient rehab options for people in Tina battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. With low doses however, the client doesn't experience being high and also does not experience acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this purpose, but there are alternative options currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around $300 monthly for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced around $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which 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 a month.
