One of the out-patient treatment alternatives for people in Juntura who are struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Some facilities and doctors are authorized to administer specific meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids also and are addictive. In low amounts however, the client doesn't feel high but also does not experience intense cravings and is not in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this sole purpose, but there are alternative options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the drug, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the med is about $150 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opiate based med, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which can only be dispensed in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is about just under $300 monthly 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 opioids. Someone consuming this version of the drug, 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 costs approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another medication used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications mentioned here it is an opiate blocker and isn't an opioid. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, the drug prevents someone from feeling high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs in the range of $1000 to $1200 /month.
