One of the outpatient rehab options for individuals in Cascade who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are certified to dispense certain medications to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low doses however, the client does not feel high but also doesn't experience intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this reason, but there are other choices currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate 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 drug is around 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 that is only be dispensed in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 per month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs about $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone 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 monthly.
