One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Granite Canon who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are certified to administer specific meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids also and are addictive. In low doses the individual does not experience being high but also does not have acute cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this purpose, but there are a few more options to select from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic certified to dispense the med, that is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is around under $200 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 administered in highly well-regulated clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is around just under $300 per month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a drug which blocks 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 is also taken daily, and is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
