One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Little Valley struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to give specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low doses however, the user does not experience high feelings but also does not have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this reason, but there are a few more options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is only be dispensed in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 a month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
