One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for individuals in Brookesmith who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids also and are addiction. With low amounts the individual does not feel high and also does not experience acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this sole purpose, but there are other options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost 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 different from Methadone that can only be administered in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars per month for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med that blocks the effects of opiates. An individual consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder 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 an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
