One of the outpatient rehab options for individuals in Jenners struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addictive. With low amounts the individual does not experience high feelings and also does not have acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this purpose, but there are alternative options currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced around $450 per month. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and is not 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 feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
