One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for clients in Verona who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids themselves and are addiction. With low enough doses the user does not feel high but also doesn't have acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this reason, but there are a few more options to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the drug, which is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which can only be administered in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from feeling high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
