One of the out-patient treatment alternatives for people in Port Reading who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to give specific meds to opioid addicted clients, many of which are opioid-based also and are addictive. With low enough doses the individual does not feel high but also does not have severe cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication used for this purpose, but there are a few more options to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an outpatient clinic licensed to dispense the med, that is taken on a daily basis as a pill or liquid. The cost of the drug is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But unlike Methadone which can only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately just under $300 a month for the generic of the medication. There is also a type of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med which reverses the effects of opiates. Someone taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned it's an opioid blocker and isn't an opiate. A person has the choice 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 in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
