One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for clients in Dresden struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to administer specific medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are addiction. With low doses the user doesn't feel high but also doesn't experience severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this sole purpose, but there are other options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is about 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 unlike Methadone that can only be administered in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and costs approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
