One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Elderon who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to dispense specific medications to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids themselves and are addictive. In low amounts however, the client doesn't feel high but also does not experience intense cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this purpose, but there are other choices to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which is only be administered in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars monthly for the generic version of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which reverses the effects of opiates. A person consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken on a daily basis, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opiate blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
