One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Toomsuba who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to administer specific medications to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low enough doses the client doesn't feel high and also does not have acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this reason, but there are alternative options to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug 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 can only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around just under $300 monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. An individual consuming 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 on a daily basis, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here 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 a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
