One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for individuals in Lando who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to give certain medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are addictive. With low enough amounts the individual doesn't experience high feelings and also doesn't experience intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this sole purpose, but there are a few more choices to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be administered in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars per month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opiates. Someone consuming 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 every day, and is priced approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
