One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Woodland who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to give specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. With low doses however, the user does not feel high but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this reason, but there are a few more options to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 /month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this formulation, 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 is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
