One of the out-patient treatment alternatives for people in Helvetia struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are authorized to dispense certain meds to opioid dependent clients, many of which are opioid-based also and are addiction. With low enough doses the user does not experience being high but also doesn't experience intense cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this sole purpose, but there are a few more options to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is approximately $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based drug, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which can only be dispensed in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is approximately $300 per month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. Someone consuming this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and is priced around $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
