One of the outpatient treatment options for clients in Malmo who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give certain medications to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based also and are habit forming. With low doses however, the individual does not feel high but also doesn't have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this reason, but there are other choices currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the drug, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is approximately $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 is only be dispensed in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars /month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
