One of the out-patient rehabilitation options for individuals in Pyote who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to give certain medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are habit forming. With low enough doses however, the individual does not experience high feelings and also does not experience acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone that can only be given in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around just under $300 per month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. Someone 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 costs about $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
