One of the out-patient rehabilitation alternatives for individuals in Harvey who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to administer certain meds to opioid dependent people, many of which are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low enough doses however, the individual doesn't feel high but also doesn't experience intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this reason, but there are other options to select from.
Methadone is an opioid and can 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 about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be given in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 monthly for the generic version of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, that is a med that blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced about $450 monthly. Naltrexone is another med taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 a month.
