One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Bouckville struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low amounts however, the individual does not experience high feelings and also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this reason, but there are other options to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is approximately one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that is only be administered in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 monthly for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. An individual taking this version of the drug, also known as 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 a month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
