One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for individuals in Arkport battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to give specific medications to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addictive. In low doses the individual doesn't experience being high and also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this purpose, but there are alternative options to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that is only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
