One of the outpatient rehab options for individuals in Fort Montgomery struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to give specific meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. In low amounts the individual doesn't experience being high but also does not have acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars per month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs about $450 /month. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. 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 experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
