One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for clients in Maplecrest who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. With low enough amounts the user does not experience being high but also doesn't experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this reason, but there are alternative choices currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300 monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. An individual taking this version of the drug, 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 is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
