One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for clients in Newman Grove who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. With low amounts however, the user does not feel high but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this purpose, but there are alternative choices to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be given in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about $300.00 per month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opiates. Someone taking 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 daily, and costs approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication 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 injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
