One of the out-patient rehab options for clients in Dell who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense specific medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low doses the individual doesn't experience high feelings but also doesn't experience intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this reason, but there are a few more choices to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that can only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around just under $300 per month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. 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 too is taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and is not 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 shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
