One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for people in Danville who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to give certain medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids also and are addiction. With low enough amounts however, the user doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are other options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around just under $300 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med which blocks 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 too is taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
