One of the outpatient rehab options for individuals in Hodgen struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed facilities and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid addicted clients, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. With low enough amounts however, the individual does not experience high feelings but also doesn't experience acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication administered for this purpose, but there are alternative options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to administer the drug, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 /month for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a med which blocks the effects of opiates. An individual taking this formulation, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced around $450 per month. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opioid blocker and is not 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 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 a month.
