One of the out-patient rehab options for clients in Buffalo Mills who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to give specific medications to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low doses the client doesn't experience being high but also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this reason, but there are a few more options currently to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300.00 a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, AKA 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 costs about $450 per month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
