One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for clients in Rienzi who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low enough doses the individual doesn't experience being high and also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are alternative choices currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be dispensed in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug which reverses the effects of opioids. A person taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs about $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience being 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.
