One of the out-patient rehab options for people in Wallburg battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some centers and doctors are authorized to administer certain meds to opioid dependent individuals, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low enough amounts however, the individual does not feel high but also doesn't experience intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this purpose, but there are a few more choices to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to dispense the drug, that 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 med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which can only be given in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is around $300.00 a month for the generic version of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, which is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. Someone consuming this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken every day, and costs approximately $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
