One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for clients in Trevose battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to administer certain meds to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. With low amounts the individual doesn't feel high but also does not experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced about $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
