One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Verona who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give certain medications to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low enough amounts the individual doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't experience intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this purpose, but there are other options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and costs approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that 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 injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
