One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for individuals in Dunning struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to dispense certain medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low doses the user doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't have acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are alternative choices currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be given in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
