One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Surprise battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low doses the client does not experience being high but also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this purpose, but there are a few more choices to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate 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 administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this drug 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 injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
