One of the outpatient treatment options for people in Boyle who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to administer specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low enough amounts the client doesn't experience high feelings and also does not experience intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this reason, but there are other choices to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be dispensed in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs around $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
