One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Tiona struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to administer certain meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioids also and are habit forming. With low enough doses however, the client does not experience high feelings but also doesn't have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this purpose, but there are a few more options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is about $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around just under $300 per month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this formulation, also known as 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 is priced about $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
