One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for people in Rosburg struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to give specific medications to opioid dependent clients, many that are opioid-based also and are addiction. In low enough doses however, the client doesn't experience being high and also does not experience acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is approximately under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. A person 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 daily, and is priced around $450 a month. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
