One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for people in Kapowsin who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid dependent individuals, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low enough doses the individual does not experience high feelings but also doesn't experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this reason, but there are alternative choices to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic certified to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be given in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars a month for the generic version of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. Someone consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and costs around $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
