One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for individuals in Campbell struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioid-based also and are addictive. In low doses however, the client doesn't experience high feelings and also does not experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this sole purpose, but there are other choices currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which can only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 a month for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and costs around $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
