One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for individuals in Canaseraga who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to give certain medications to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. In low enough amounts the client does not feel high and also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are other choices to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is around $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be administered in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 per month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. A person taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and costs about $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
