One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Mc Lain struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give certain medications to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids also and are addiction. In low amounts however, the user doesn't experience high feelings but also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are a few more options currently to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be given in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opiates. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
