One of the out-patient rehab options for individuals in Adell struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low doses the individual does not experience being high and also does not experience acute cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this reason, but there are a few more options to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be given in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars /month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug that reverses the effects of opiates. Someone consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced about $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 per month.
