One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for clients in Helmville battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to administer certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioids also and are habit forming. With low enough amounts however, the client doesn't experience being high but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are other choices to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be given in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately $300 monthly for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. A person 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 on a daily basis, and is priced around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
