One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for people in Nisland who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low amounts however, the user does not feel high but also doesn't have severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are alternative choices to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which can only be dispensed in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and costs approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
