One of the out-patient rehab options for clients in Brashear who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to give specific medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low amounts the client does not experience being high and also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is around $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which can only be administered in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around $300.00 a month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking 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 about $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned 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, the drug prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
