One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for people in Minter City struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense specific medications to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioids also and are addictive. With low doses the individual does not experience high feelings and also does not have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about $300.00 per month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this formulation, AKA 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 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual 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.
