One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for clients in Adair Village struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are authorized to give certain medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioids also and are addictive. With low amounts however, the individual does not experience being high and also doesn't experience severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug tried for this sole purpose, but there are other options currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and is meant to be taken at an out-patient medical center certified to dispense the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the drug is about 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 that can only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars monthly for the generic version of the drug. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opioids. A person consuming this version of the drug, 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 costs around $450 per month. Naltrexone is another med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned here 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, it prevents an individual from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 monthly.
