One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for people in Leckrone struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to dispense specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based also and are habit forming. With low enough amounts the user does not experience being high and also doesn't have acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this reason, but there are alternative options currently to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the med, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be administered in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opiates. A person taking this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and costs around $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug 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 shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
