One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Limeport struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low doses the user does not experience being high but also does not have intense cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are alternative options to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be dispensed in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 /month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and costs around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
