One of the outpatient rehab options for individuals in Belleville battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to dispense specific meds to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are addictive. In low enough doses however, the client does not experience being high but also doesn't have acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med used for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is about $150 monthly. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone that can only be given in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 per month for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and costs approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
