One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for people in Goodspring who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low doses the user doesn't feel high and also doesn't have acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med tried for this reason, but there are other options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the drug is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be given in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug 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 monthly.
