One of the outpatient treatment options for clients in Cypress Inn who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to give specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioids themselves and are habit forming. With low enough amounts the user doesn't experience being high but also doesn't have severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are a few more options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opiates. 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 is also taken on a daily basis, and costs about $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents an individual from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 monthly.
