One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Colman who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to administer certain medications to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low enough amounts however, the user doesn't feel high and also doesn't have intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this reason, but there are a few more options currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about $150 a 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 highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately $300 a month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
