One of the outpatient rehab alternatives for clients in Mcminnville struggling with opioid abuse and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are authorized to administer specific meds to opioid addicted individuals, many that are opioids also and are addiction. With low enough amounts however, the client doesn't experience high feelings but also doesn't have severe cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug used for this sole purpose, but there are other choices to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an out-patient medical center licensed to dispense the med, that is taken daily in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is around $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that can only be dispensed in highly structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about $300.00 /month for the generic of the medication. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a drug which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual taking this formulation, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to get high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken daily, and is priced about $450 a month. Naltrexone is another drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from getting high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
