One of the outpatient rehab options for clients in Karnack who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low doses however, the individual doesn't feel high but also does not experience acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are a few more options currently to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the drug, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be dispensed in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately 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 drug that blocks the effects of opiates. Someone consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
