One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Verona Beach battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to administer certain medications to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low enough amounts the user does not experience being high and also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this reason, but there are other options to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be administered in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about $300 per month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
