One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for clients in Spring Creek who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low enough amounts the client doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this reason, but there are a few more options currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the drug, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be administered in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced about $450 per month. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
