One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Sale Creek struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids also and are addictive. In low amounts the individual doesn't experience being high but also does not experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be administered in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 per month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a drug that blocks the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, which 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 in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
