One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for people in Saltillo who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to dispense specific medications to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are habit forming. With low enough doses however, the client does not experience high feelings and also does not experience severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this reason, but there are a few more choices to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to dispense the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is approximately $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which can only be given in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 a month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. A person taking this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and costs around $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it's an opiate blocker and isn't 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 someone from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
