One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for clients in Industry struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioids also and are habit forming. In low enough amounts however, the user does not feel high and also doesn't have acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this sole purpose, but there are other choices to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be administered in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about $300.00 a month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. Someone taking this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and costs about $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
