One of the out-patient rehab options for individuals in Collins struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted individuals, many of which are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low enough amounts however, the client doesn't experience high feelings and also does not experience severe cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this reason, but there are other choices to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, which is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is around one hundred and fifty dolloars a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But different from Methadone which is only be given in well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately three hundred dollars a month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. Someone consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and is priced about $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 opiate. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
