One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in Dillon who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to give specific meds to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low amounts the user doesn't experience high feelings but also does not have severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this purpose, but there are alternative options to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that is only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately $300 /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. Someone 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 costs about $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and isn't 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 getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
