One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for people in Bausman struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense specific medications to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are addictive. With low doses the client doesn't feel high but also doesn't have intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this purpose, but there are a few more choices to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone that is 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 about just under $300 per month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. 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 is also taken every day, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
