One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for people in Valmy who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to give specific meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. In low doses the user doesn't experience high feelings and also does not experience acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this purpose, but there are a few more options to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 /month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
