One of the out-patient rehab options for clients in Manvel who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to give specific meds to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. With low enough amounts however, the user doesn't feel high and also does not experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 monthly for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. Someone taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced about $450 a month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
